Introduction

It was a cold dark January afternoon in Rose School, Victoria and Poppy where heading to their last class. This was one of London’s most modern school, the girls all had iPads instead of heavy text books. They had lessons like no other school. Horse riding, Ice Skating, Skiing, film making and cooking. They also had the most modern class rooms and the most loved pink and orange school uniform. In a nutshell it was the loveliest school in London. It was the school where all the Girls wanted to go to. 

When they got to the ice rink lockers they put on their personalised glittery pink skates, and headed for the ice rink where they were the first to arrive. When they arrived, their ice-skating teacher told them to do 4 laps around the rink. By the time they were on their third lap the rest of the class arrived. 

When all the class finished doing their laps, the teacher got on the ice herself, to show them what they would learn to do, it was called a doughnut spin. Mrs Glaner began to make a big circle then the circle got smaller and smaller until she was spinning on the spot and her arm was holding her leg. When the teacher had demonstrated a couple of times, they each had to try it. The teacher came to see how they were getting on, but Poppy kept on calling Mrs Glaner for help , whilst on the other hand Victoria tried to practise twice and got the trick! Maybe because it was one of her favourite sports? The teacher let Victoria show the class how it was done. The rest of the class were still practising the doughnut spin, whilst Victoria quickly moved on to a new trick, (you would usually only do this in the next year, year 9 !) the death drop. She started off with the same moves as the Doughnut spin and then she jumped; the moment she landed she went down as if she sat on the ice. Again, she got it first time she tried it. Whereas on the other side of the ice the rest of the class had just mastered the doughnut spin, and would next week all move on to the flying Camille. They were learning all the tricks because the girls were practising for their gold exam which is just as hard as grade 3 in music. The end of the class came and the girls went to the ice skating locker room where they took off their skates and put on their school shoes. They crossed the school to their lockers where grabbed their bags and headed for the main door. Poppy was coming for a sleepover before they were going on their ski trip to Italy. 

When they got out of school they saw Victoria’s mums car. They when out the gate and in to the car when they got in the car. Davina gave them their snacks. She asked them how school was. “
