Han: Hi! I’m Han. I’m new here.

Sam: Hey Han! I’m Sam. Nice to meet you. Welcome
to the school!
Han: Can you please tell me where to leave my shoes?
Sam: Huh? Your shoes?
Han: Yes, in Japan we take them off before we go
into the classroom.
Sam: Oh no, Han! We never do that here. Our shoes
are part of the school uniform.
Han: Oh, I see! I guess schools are different here in
the UK.
Sam: Really? How come?
Han: Well, for example, in Japan we always help
clean the school at the end of the day.
Sam: Hmm, that’s interesting. Students don’t do that
in the UK, but we usually help tidy up the
classrooms before lunch break.
Han: In Japan, we don’t bring lunch from home. We
only eat the food from the school canteen.
Sam: Really? I always bring food from home. My
mum doesn’t like the school food! She thinks
it’s unhealthy.
Han: Is that the school bell?
Sam: Yes, come on. We have to go to our lessons
now! We have Art first thing every Monday.

By Phil Sand

Who is your favourite famous person? For me, it’s Reece

James. He’s a great football player from London. He now
plays brilliantly for Chelsea Football Club and England’s
national team, but that isn’t the only reason I think he’s great.
Reece is tall and slim with short, black, curly hair. He’s serious
and quiet. Apart from football, he enjoys swimming and
playing computer [Link] days, however, he is spending
a lot of his free time at the Felix Project. It’s a charity that
helps get food to hungry people in London. Reece collects
food from shops and takes it to charities and schools. They
use it to make healthy, tasty meals and give them to people
who have no food to eat.
Reece says, “We can’t help everyone, but everyone can help
someone.” I agree! I think Reece James is really kind and
that’s why he’s my favourite famous person. I hope I can be
like him one day!
