The school looked perfectly normal from the outside. The gates were black and rusty and old. The sign saying 'Spylers Middle School' was purple once... it was now a faded violet and several letters in Spylers were gone. It spelt now 'Spy Middle school'. No-one would have guessed that this was no ordinary Middle school.

Alexy, Ben, Holly and Jade gazed around the surroundings of the school. A main road one way. A quiet alley the other. "Well" said Holly. "Looks OK." Alexy nodded, but Jade raised her eyebrows. "Humph. Oh.... well at least we're not the only year fives to be. They'll be heaps of other children." Added Holly, smiling.
"Yep. Come on, a new starts ahead of us!" Agreed Alexy. The four friends pushed open the gate and made their way into the school. Holly gasped. The playground was... Well... um... STRANGE! It had black gravel floor, speakers everywhere, silver hula hoops, and a wonky 3-d hopscotch!
"What are the speakers for?" Asked Holly. Jade shrugged. "Let’s ask one of the children that go here!" Alexy suggested. Ben nodded.
"Worth a shot" He said.
"Excuse me" Alexy said politely to a year seven girl named Cole. "Would you mind telling us why there are speakers everywhere?" Cole looked Alexy in the eye.
"Because teachers like to deafen pupils" She joked. Alexy gave her a disapproving look as Cole joined her friends. Suddenly, the speaker started saying something: "YEAR FIVES!” It barked. "GO TO YEAR FIVE CORRIDOR. EVERYONE ELSE REPOT TO NORMAL STATIONS! NOOOOW!"
