One for the Holidays

Usually I leave for School at 7:10am and arrive at 8:15am. On the first day back, I wake up with a start and think I'm late for school. I glance at the clock on the wall (without my glasses on!) and see the hands pointing to 7:15am. I rush to get ready and take 10mins. I leave the house and take the usual time to get to school.
When I arrive no-one is there and the school is shut. I realise my mistake when I get home... My clock had turned round on the wall so that the number at the top was the 10.

What time did I arrive at School?

Give your answer to Mr Broadhurst in September when we get back. The first correct answer will win a prize.
