First day of school



I remember my first day at Excelsior Public School when I joined midway of kindergarten, I knew absolutely no English and encountering with 'white' people who have blue eyes, blonde hair for the first time was very difficult for a 5 year old me to fit into. This made me fearful that I cried so much I got sent home. It was actually REALLY hard for me, not only did I know no English but I had very bad separation anxiety with my mum. This separation anxiety was very severe and this continued up till I was in year 4. I cried almost everyday of school that the principle kindly asked me to leave. So I went back to pre school for a couple of months before going back to excelsior and managing to settle in very well and completing my primary school life with a bang.
