SUMMER CAMP IN EDINBURGH
by Emma Lee, age 12
I've just come back from a summer camp I did in Scotland and I'd like to tell you about it. It was my
very first holiday without my family so I was a little worried at first. My mother drove me to the airport
carly in the morning and by quarter to seven I was on the plane by myself.
‘The flight lasted one hour and a half. During the journey, I made friends with another girl, Ida, who was
going to the same summer camp. She was from Denmark but her English was quite good. When we
arrived, we found a young lady waiting for us just outside the airport.
The summer camp only lasted twelve days, but I did so many things that it seemed much longer. In the
morning we could do different activities: I really enjoy art so I chose a drawing course and improved my
cartoon drawing skills. We also did sports I often do, like horse riding, table tennis and football
Ida also asked me to join the guitar course so now I can play a few songs.
When I came back a few days ago I was glad to see my family again, but | was also a little sad because I
was going to miss my new friends from the summer camp. Anyway, Ida and I text each other every day
and she promised she will visit me next month,Paper 1 Reading and Writing
