PART TWO - THE SCHOOLGIRL
CHAPTER THREE
My First Impressions 1 of School


After the homework was done we each had a small piece of bread


for supper. Then we all went upstairs in the long, crowded


bedroom, where two children shared every bed. I had to share


Miss Miller's, but I was so tired that I fell asleep


immediately 2.
In the early morning, someone rang a bell to wake us up,


although it was still dark outside. I got dressed quickly in


the cold room, and washed when I could. There was only one


bowl of water for six girls. When the bell rang again, we all


went downstairs to the cold, dark schoolroom for [-----1----


-]. When the bell rang a third time, it was time to begin our


lessons. Everyone moved into four groups around four tables,


and the teachers came into the room to start the Bible 3 class.


I was in the class for the youngest girls. I was so glad when


it was time for breakfast! I had eaten only a little food the


day before. But on that morning, the only food we got was


burned [-----2-----]. It was so awful that we could not eat


it, so we left the dining room with empty [-----3-----]. After


breakfast came a happy time of day, when the students could


play and talk together a little. Everyone agreed that the


breakfast was terrible. At nine o'clock, the lessons started


again and finished at twelve. After the lessons Miss Temple 4


stood up to speak to the whole school.
"Girls, this morning you had a breakfast which you could not


eat. You must be hungry, so I have asked for a lunch of bread


and cheese for all of you." The teachers looked at her in


surprise.
"Don't worry. I'll take responsibility 5 for it," she said to


them.
We were very happy, and ran out into the garden to eat our


lunch. None of the other girls had spoken to me yet, but I did


not mind. I stood alone outside, eating my bread and cheese


and trying to forget how cold it was. I thought about my new


life. Gateshead was far away, and I did not yet have friends


at school. What sort 6 of future would I have?
