My mother accompanied me to school onthe first day. Other parents accompaniedtheir children as well. We all waited infront of the school office. Soon a teacher came and led us to someclassrooms. There we were put into fourseparate classes. This was when somechildren began to cry as the parents werenot allowed into the classrooms. I did notcry because I had been to kindergartenbefore. Actually my mother went homesoon after for she knew I would be allright.
It was an enjoyable time for me as I got toknow my new classmates. The teacher wasvery busy writing down our particulars sowe had plenty of time to ourselves.
Meantime some children continued to sobwhile their parents looked in anxiouslythrough the windows.
Soon recess came. Some of us headed forthe tuck-shop while the rest headed fortheir parents. I bought a drink with themoney my mother gave me. Getting toknow my new friends had made methirsty.
After recess we went back to outclassroom and my new friends and Imanaged to coax two boys to stop crying.In fact, soon we were laughing and playingtogether. Once in a while the teacher hadto tell us to keep quiet as we were makingtoo much noise.
Still some parents looked in anxiouslythrough the windows.
Finally the bell rang for us to go home.Some of us were very relieved to bereunited with our parents. I too was gladto see my mother waiting for me at theschool gate. I had made many friends. Ithad been a wonderful first day at school.
