Accident in school

Sara is a young girl. She's from Syria and has lived in Scotland for 2 years and is in primary 5. She speaks fluent English and Arabic. She's a very clever girl who likes school a lot. When she grows up, she wants to be a doctor to help people.

When Sara isn't in class, she likes to play on the playground every day. She likes to run and play on the swings.

Last Tuesday, she fell from the swing and hurt her arm. Her teacher, Mrs. Hassan, saw her fall from the window. Mrs. Hassan ran out the school to see if Sara was ok. Her shirt and face were dirty, and she was crying a lot. Mrs. Hassan took Sara to see Mrs. Smith, the school nurse.

Mrs. Smith checked Sara's arm. Sara said her arm hurt a lot. The school nurse called Sara's father, Ahmad. He came to the school to collect her then drove her to the hospital.

At the hospital, they waited for one hour to see a doctor. Sara got an X-Ray. She had a fractured bone.

Sara wore a bandage around her arm for 8 weeks.

After 8 weeks, her arm was better. She still likes to play on swings but now she's more careful.
