My Life: Jess, 11, Oxfordshire

1 min read
I do lots of sports like, netball, lacrosse and tennis. My favourite is lacrosse as it's fast moving and fun. We have games lessons four times a week for one hour 20 minutes.

I'm at a boarding school and when I go home I like being with my family and seeing friends.

The good thing about boarding school is that you're always with your friends after school. We share dorms, ours is like a house with three floors. There are two dorms on each floor. We get to choose our own duvet and things like that.

There are lots of things to do all the time. For example, we have dorm entertainment where we get themes. The last theme was Easter and we did a play about Jesus's life.

On closed weekends, where we can't go home, we get to go out for the day. We do things like ice-skating or bowling. The first and last weekends of term are always closed.
