Hai every one! My name is Azra. I am three years old. I am from Turkey. My family just moved to England. I dont speak in English.The past few days my mummy and Daddy telling me that I have to go to School from Monday. Today is Monday. My mummy gave me a good bath and she dressed me with my beautiful pink dress and she drive me to my School.
When we arrived my mummy press the door bell. Here she is , my teacher with a beautiful smile says 'Hai Azra Good morning'. I dont know what to say I hide behind my mummy. My mummy is filling some forms. The teacher said, say bye to mummy.I looked at mummy My mummy said 'bye Azra listen to your teachers'. But I am so sad and I feel cry. My teacher hold my hands and said 'My name is Lizi', Would you like to join with us? I really dont understand what she says, I followed her. She took me to my class room. Lots of children playing in the class room. The teacher said 'Hai children this is our new friend Azra, Say hello to Azra. The children shouting Hai Azra! I dont know what to say.
My teacher shows my class room and says, this is the reading area, this is a art and craft area, this is the construction area, this is water and sand area, this is role-play area. Where do you want to play. I roll my eyes and point construction area. Some children were playing there. I join with them. As soon as I got near them they are giving me their toys. I was amazed. I never share my toys with my little brother. I played there. The children were speaking in English. I try to listen and understand. Suddenly the teacher said 'circle time'. All the children tidying their toys and sit in the carpet nicely. Wow this children are very good. They are singing nursery rhymes, counting their numbers, lots of activities. After that we all had our snacks together. Sharing is going on every where. Through out day I played and enjoyed in my class. I was so scared today morning. Not any more. I really like my teacher and the children in my class. All of us in different colour, we speak different language at home, we eat different food. But here every one is equal. I am glad My mum and dad brought me to this School.

Dear arif saeed, We all got different imagination about Schools is int? Because I am working with very young children, most of them probably they never experienced separating from their parents. It must be heart braking for them. I make sure give them the warmth they need and keep them comfort in the new environment. The kind and care help children to settle in the class quickly and they adjust themselves soon.
Thank you for taking your time reading my old blog and comment. I really appreciate it brother.
Dear RK, Thank you so much. I appreciate it. Azra gone to Primary School last Thursday, she did visited me to show her new uniform. The teacher 'Lizi' in this story its me :)
The first day in school is unforgettable. But my story is different. I felt cheated at the first day when I entered my class. I used to imagine the class full of fun and the purpose of going school was to make as much friends as I could. But the reality was different from my imagination. However, I somehow managed it
Thank you for your 'Like', Evangeline, Shosho, Elen,Mohamed Eldawy.
