The
first day in school
The
year 1 pupils cried
Seeing
the intimidating building
The
fence enclosure around
The
unfamiliar faces
The
adults and children
Along
the corridors
Telling
the children to behave
The
teachers came
Men
and Women to the score
The
children got quiet
Some
began to cry
Marching
to the classes
The
new friends and faces found
The
first time the children met
The
faces of many colours
Eyes
on the teachers
The
pupils stayed on
Some
parents would hang around
Worried
on their children in class
The
active ones
They
would go and make mischief
In
the classes they belonged
The
teachers had to be on their toes
The
time flew away
The
lessons began on the boards
The
hungry eyes watched the words
The
letters formed and the tones
Before
they knew it
It
was time to go home
The
bell rung they assembled
The
parents or guardians at the gate
