My first day at school

It was early February and nervousness filled my belly like flies tickling your legs. Adults with toddlers roaming around, people with prams running around with plastic bags filled with books, pens and school work. The teacher greeted us at the door with a big, warm, welcoming smile. She lead me to my own, new seat where I put my chairbag and books. Mum and Dad gave hugs and kisses to me and then left me so I could socialise and make new friends.About 45 minutes before morning tea we had something called “brain food,” to keep us going they said. When I got out of the classroom,the field was filled with bright colours and beautiful sounds that made me feel happy.  I come in after morning tea I would sit on the mat and the teacher would read me a book and that was very relaxing. At the end of the day we would say good afternoon Mr/Mrs___ and leave the classroom. I would wait for my Mum and Dad at the church, but if I’m still at school when the 3:00 bell goes the teacher or a principal will escort me and the kids to a safer place than being out at the front by the church. After a good nights sleep we come back in the morning refreshed.
