Kadir Thank you! Woman What’s your name? Kadir

Presenter Imagine your parents have just told you that 
you’re going to move house. Not only that, but 
you’re going to move to a different town and 
start going to a new school. How would you 
feel? Moving house can be exciting, but it is 
also one of the most difficult events in 
a person’s life. People often feel sad about 
leaving their old home, and worried about 
starting a new life somewhere else. Caitlin, 
Ahmed and Josie have all moved to new towns 
in the last three months. How’s it been for you, 
Caitlin?
Caitlin
I moved here with my family nearly two months 
ago. The new house is great and my bedroom’s
really cosy and comfortable. But I do feel a bit 
sad sometimes. I think about my old school 
quite a lot. I haven’t been back to visit yet. 
Presenter Maybe you will soon. What about you, Ahmed? 
Ahmed
We only moved here three weeks ago. It’s the 
holidays, so I haven’t started my new school 
yet. I hope it’ll be OK. The new house is quite 
nice. I didn’t like the colour of my bedroom. It 
was green and really dark so I painted it. It’s 
white now, much better.
Presenter That sounds good. OK, tell us about your 
experience, Josie.
Josie 
We left our old house about a month ago. I 
really didn’t want to move. But actually it’s been 
OK. I speak to my old friends every week, but 
I’ve made some good friends here too. Most of 
them are school friends but the girl next door is 
really nice as well. We’ve spent some time 
together and have a lot in common. 
Presenter That sounds good. Everybody’s different, of 
course, but it seems like there are two important
things to do when you move house: the first is 
to understand that moving house is a big and 
difficult event, the other is to find positive things 
about your new home.

A normal life
Prince William is the grandson of Queen Elizabeth II and the
eldest son of Prince Charles and Princess Diana. He and his
wife, Kate, live in a large apartment in Kensington Palace in 
London with their two young children, George and Charlotte.
They also have a home in Norfolk in the east of England. 
William works hard but he hasn’t got a normal job. Instead, 
he has a lot of royal duties: he meets foreign kings, queens 
and presidents and he helps a lot of different charities. He is
famous all around the world, but he doesn’t want his home 
life to be special or different.
Kate also has a lot of royal duties. But like her husband, she
wants a normal life too. She goes shopping in the local 
supermarket, and she sometimes meets friends and has 
coffee with them. She always buys her own clothes. 
Sometimes she buys expensive designer clothes, but she 
often goes to normal clothes shops.
William and Kate are happy together and they love their 
apartment in London and their quiet home in the country. 
Kate’s hobbies are cooking, walking their dog Lupo and 
playing with her children. William and Kate are proud of their
young children. They think they have got a wonderful 
family!!
