11-plus Exam and SATS

by Aradhya aged 10

I am ten years old.
A girl, kind and bold.
But one thing scares me!
It’s year 5 pressure you see.
What do I mean you ask?
Year 6 holds 11+ exams then SATS.
I wake at five.
To study and dive
Into a new learning category.
Algebra, then multiplication.
Bobmas and unlike fractions.
Volume and surface area.
Decimals and capacity
Sequences…
Whao, Whao, Whao!
That’s too much.
But there’s much, much, much more.
After school,
No time to snooze.
There’s homework, and other studies to do.
Come – it’s time to study the hours away.
I am ten years old.
A girl, kind and bold.
But one thing scares me!
It’s year 5 pressure you see.
It’s year 5 pressure you see.
It’s year 5 pressure you see.
