    I will! Make sure you message me and let me know yours too :P
    Yeah me too! Finally able to do subjects that we want to do, non compulsory choices

    Uh, well it's an odd situation for me, I don't have one because I have to be taken in from my school because I moved from Australia hahah, so I was in Year 10 because I missed a few GCSE tests when I came back, and then I'm going into Year 12 when we go back in September hahah, but I think I have an induction kinda week next week? Are you at school next week too? :P xoxo

    Good

    Yeah it's really confusing! Lived there for 3 years haha Came back half way through GCSEs, so it was a nightmare getting down a year! Glad to be in Year12 now though!

    Ah gosh, I'm in for the rest of the week for Induction Week, but it's been pretty as-expected so far! Not really worth going in in my opinion :P
    Gosh, 7 sounds like such a delight! 6.15am for me every morning, hahah! xxxx

    The Olympic module is unit 3: B3. I you did higher tier the code will have an H at the end (45 is A* and 41 is an A) and if you did foundation the code will have an F at the end
