6. First school day

Today was the first school day after the South African summer holidays. For us, it also was our first school day at Bishops College. The day started in the school's chapel. The chapel is located at the centre of the school campus. After chapel, we went to Birt House for a house meeting. We were welcomed as exchange students and after the house meeting we went to Mr. Court who is Bishop's exchange coordinator. We had to choose our subjects. I chose Afrikaans, Life Sciences, Geography, and History. The rest of the day we could just chill out a bit. 
Bishops College consists of a lot of separate buildings located on one huge campus. The school works with a house system, meaning that the students are divided in different houses. As I mentioned above, we are in Birt House.
