I love doing our Thursday activities. They’re fun and teach me something new.
It is really easy to make new friends. That is an amazing thing about this School!
My favourite lesson at school is English. I can let my imagination run wild!
I love doing sports at Griffin. It keeps me fit and healthy!
The best thing about school is seeing my friends and the teachers.
I like school because we do lots of fun activities!
