amazing is that? There isn’t a TV and there isn’t

a computer! In the room, there’s an old desk
and a lamp in front of the window. There are
lots of 2 bags / books on the bookshelves – all about Sherlock Holmes, of course! There are two
chairs – one for Holmes and one for 3 Dr / Mrs Watson. There’s a fireplace behind the chairs.
There’s a museum shop next to the museum. Our cool 4 watches / hats are from the shop.
They’re brilliant!

Hi Kasia!
This is my school. It’s in Chelwood (a village near Bath) and it’s
very small! It’s great, but it’s different from Danny’s school.
I go to a boarding school, so we sleep in the school. We get up at
seven o’clock in the morning and get dressed. We have breakfast
at school, too! We start lessons at eight o’clock.
We have lunch at twelve o’clock in the canteen and then we
have more lessons.
School finishes at four o’clock but after school we do our
homework in the library. After that we have some free time and
then we go to bed. I like my school. My friends and I share a
room – it’s so cool!
