Why is school important

My first at school for Term 2

I was really happy to go back to school to learn more things. I had an amazing day to even though we had some ups&downs today but its only the first day of school, everyone's still in their holiday mood just like me. It was nice seeing everyone coming school with a bright smile on there face and it was just so glad our Inquiry focus for this term is Science and I'm already loving it and because I am learning new things I haven't learnt before. I just can't wait to see everyone all focused with school and everyone having fun with their friends and teachers at school.

 TAMAKI PRIMARY IS THE BEST!!!! 

Recount about My first day at school

I remember when I first started school I was so nervous and so scared. I came to New Zealand when I was four years old and I didn't know any English and I had to start school the next year. I was so shy and I didn't want to go to school because it would been the first time leaving my Mum. When I first entered the school gates I remembered how my Mum told me to don’t be scared and don’t cry.

My first class was in Room 1 and my first teacher was Mrs Dee. She was kind and lovely but once I saw my Mum leave, I was so lonely I started to cry. The teachers helped me out to not cry but I couldn't stop crying, so my teacher had to call my Mum or my Aunt to come and stay with me. While the class was learning I stayed at the back and tried not to cry. Then my Mum came and stayed with me for a couple of hours and then a boy name Simon and a girl name Mehi looked after me while my Mum went back home for a family meeting. I tried my best to not cry. Simon and Mehi were good friends. It was so funny how Mehi didn't know much English and she always talked to me in Tongan.

A couple of weeks later I came more familiar with the school. I learnt heaps of things in English and I made heaps of new friends. I love school and I enjoy learning things I didn't know and just having a positive attitude toward school.
