Three years ago my friends and I ... in Eastbourne, a small town in England. We ... students there. I ... 12 years old. Our school ... big. There ... a lot of classrooms in it. There ... students from different countries in the school. They ... all friendly. We ... happy to make new friends. There ... a nice bakery near our school. The sandwiches there ... very tasty. We ... never hungry. It ... great.
