Poem: First Day at School

First Day At School

It´s hard to explain, the way I feel;

A place unknown but is so real!

A soft voice welcomes me to the place,

I look up to see a lady´s smiling face.

I am led to a table that is covered with shapes,

A young girl my age says. Hi I am Grace,

I am three, but soon will be four.

I am a big girl and not afraid anymore.

Days go on and I encounter many new experiences and friends,

I feel like I´m on a roller coaster, which never seems to end.

I forever trying new things and learning everyday.

And the best thing is I having fun while I play!

Today I wrote my name for the very first time,

My teacher hugs me and gives the most gracious smile.

I feel full of pride; confident I can do anything if I try.

If you come to Kindy you are sure to find inside,

Happy smiles from children that continually shine!
