First day of school: A year of classes, quizzes, games and memories awaits

They have known this day was coming: First day of school.

First day of kindergarten. Blink. First day of senior year.

The school year dawns Tuesday, Sept. 3, in most districts across the Lower Hudson Valley. Day 1 of 180 in the long calendar from now till June.

Outfits have been fretted over and perfected, either to make a personal fashion statement or to fit in without drawing any notice whatsoever. Back-to-school lists have been consulted with precision, their must-have items secured. Or not.

Parents will insist on first-day photos. Older possibly jaded students, if they're wise, will roll their eyes and endure it.

High school seniors will walk taller than they did last June; ninth-graders will take their first tentative high school steps.

At kindergarten drop-offs, there will be tears, some of them from students, many more from parents.

Middle-schoolers, beset by the four horsemen of the middle-school apocalypse — expectation, anticipation, uncertainty and hormones — will swallow hard and face the inevitable.

First day of school.

A lot will happen between now and June. Those kindergartners will learn their literal p's and q's, what being in a classroom involves, how to make friends and, if they choose, how to stay within the lines when they color. Middle schoolers will navigate the social upheaval that comes with the age. And those seniors will make decisions that will set the course of their post-graduation lives.

Football games. Pep rallies. Instagram. Quizzes. Soccer matches. Tests. Volleyball. Friendships made. TikTok. Sleepovers. Midterms. Fall dramas. A presidential election. SATs. Parent-teacher conferences. Report cards. Dances. Winter break. Basketball. 2025. NYSMMA. Band concerts. Field trips. Lacrosse. Friendships lost. The spring musical. Spring break. Track and field. Regeneron Science Talent Search. Prom. Softball. Clap-outs. Graduation.

It's a new school year for teachers, too.

First day teaching. Blink. First day of their last year before retirement.

Hudson Valley schools: When does your district start? What big issues loom?

Which is why what happened at Ossining High School ‒ the week before the first day of school ‒ seemed somehow fitting.

The football team was practicing on one field, runners on another, when all of Ossining's teachers converged on the high school last week. They parked wherever they could, finding spots on the grass when the parking lots filled. They gathered in the school's auditorium, in the orchestra seats and in the balcony. Latecomers stood in the back of the theater.

When the lights dimmed, a couple dozen members of the high school's marching band came down both aisles — drummers, flutes, sousaphones, saxes and drums. Once they reached the front of the auditorium, they turned and played over the heads of the assembled teachers, some of whom clapped along to a Daft Punk medley, others capturing the moment on their phones.

The band will play at the Pearl Harbor Memorial Parade on Dec. 7 in Hawaii , but on this day, before that first day, they were here to welcome back their teachers and administrators.

Because everyone knows a parade starts with a single step. Why not have a band get you all marching in the right direction?

On the first day of school.

Keep sending those first day of school photos, they take me back

It is back-to-school day. And I am on the deck at the cottage. It’s warm and humid. And I am in my favourite all-weather rocking chair, watching the waves as I let nostalgia wash over me.

The texts begin to arrive of the “first day of the new school year”: photographs of my grandchildren and a grandnephew.

My eldest granddaughter, poised to turn 12, looks beyond-her-age beautiful. Her ears are newly pierced – a summer rite of passage with friends. She has an air of centredness and confidence. Although perhaps the weight of her world presses. Her last written reflection in our cottage guest book read “thanks for giving us a place to get away from it all.” I wonder and worry what it means to “get away from it all” at the age of 11?

My youngest grandson, who is turning 10, has an awkward smile as always. He is starting the second year of a gifted program with a friend. Perhaps he is anxious. Last year he missed his friends from the “old days.” But he’s a cool, extroverted kid and a clown.

My flamboyant, five-year-old granddaughter boldly looks to camera. She flashes a peace sign. She is dressed in her own style. But because she is heading to school she must forsake her makeup, her clip-on earrings and her frothy frock.

My grandnephew – also 5 – proclaims he is heading to senior kindergarten with the aim of becoming a Pokémon Trainer. I doubt it pays well and wonder if he will instead follow in the footsteps of his parents and grandparents who took a more academic path studying commerce.

My kin take me back.

I remember Labour Day weekend as a solemn time in my childhood. It was full of reframing and transitioning from the carefree days of summer to the serious requirements of schooling. The days were filled with energy and trepidation. Would I find new friends? Would I reconnect with recent friends? Would I fit in? Would I stand out?

And the logistics! New haircuts. New pencils. More writing pads. New lunch boxes and, later, backpacks. In the university years it was all about finding textbooks and public transit passes. The long weekend was always future focused. It was all about taking care of that journey to the future.

I was raised in an era when parents were not that involved. My mother’s mantra was essentially “suck it up, buttercup.” Although my maternal grandfather would encourage me with “ah, you’re small but mighty.” I was raised in 15 different communities. I attended four high schools in five years. Honestly, I did not try to fit in. I had no long-standing friendships. No propelling into the inner circle. I hovered on the periphery and I observed. Those first days of a school year were met with neither excitement nor trepidation but rather a determined “I will survive.” And survive I did.

When I had children of my own, “survival” took on new meaning. My first-born son adjusted to moving between six Canadian cities with calm, confidence and academic success. My second son adjusted with the energy of my youngest granddaughter. When our family moved from Edmonton to Toronto in his pivotal Grade 8 year, son No. 2 not only mastered public transit, he was valedictorian! That year, I sat in the audience at his graduation in awe. My third son faced other challenges. He had learning disabilities which I always defined as “you just learn differently.” Every school year meant a new year of advocacy on his behalf. A new year of determining if he was in the right program to leverage his unique gifts. A new year of fighting a school system that typecasts and pigeonholes and ultimately loses out on leveraging the best of human beings who learn differently.

In my chair on the cottage deck, I’m amazed that my emotions on the matter can still overwhelm me. My son needed hope. And yet there is often so much despair for those who are different. I pray that my grandchildren and my grandnephew do not “learn differently” because that journey is long and difficult.

I shake off my sadness to bring me back to the present.

Today I rock and rejoice in the uniqueness of the youngsters in the photographs. Each one illustrates the personalities and individualities of my grandchildren and grandnephew. Bless those innocent and joyful faces. May they learn to evolve into the amazing human beings that I anticipate on this day. May the school systems recognize their gifts and their dreams.

By Aimee Picchi

Edited By Alain Sherter

September 2, 2024 / 5:06 AM EDT / CBS News

Labor Day may be a national holiday, but it's also a big day for family get-togethers and backyard grilling with friends, often requiring a quick dash to pick up extra hamburger buns or drinks. 

The good news is that plenty of retailers will be keeping their doors open on September 2. Others will remain closed on Labor Day — a national holiday in the U.S. since 1894 — while some stores might have shorter hours. Here's what to know about what's open and closed on Labor Day 2024. 

Is Costco open on Labor Day?

Costco closes its doors for seven U.S. holidays each year, and Labor Day is among them. That means that you're out of luck Monday if you hope to make a quick run to the discount chain. 

Is Walmart open on Labor Day?

Walmart told CBS MoneyWatch that its locations will be open during their regular hours on Labor Day. Walmart locations are typically open from 6 a.m. until 11 p.m.

Which grocery stores are open on Labor Day?

Man allegedly drugged wife's dinner then invited more than 50 other men over to rape her

Some 51 men are accused of raping Gisèle Pélicot, a mother of three, after she was allegedly drugged by her husband at the family home in Mazan, a commune in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur

• 16:23, 2 Sep 2024
• Updated 16:37, 2 Sep 2024

A mum who was allegedly raped by multiple strangers after being drugged by her own husband today faced them all in a packed court room .

Gisèle Pélicot, a 72-year-old French woman, waived her legal right to anonymity on Monday at the opening of the trial of Dominique Pélicot, 71, and 51 other men.

All are accused of aggravated rape in a trial at the Vaucluse Criminal Court, in Avignon, which is due to last for four months. Twenty of them, including Pélicot, are in custody, while the others remain on bail.

Asked to confirm his name and address at the start of proceedings, Pélicot said: "My home is prison, you know it". Ms Pélicot, a mother-of-three, was supported by her adult children as she stood in the public gallery, listening to evidence.

The family home, in nearby Mazan, allegedly became a crime scene over almost a decade, when streams of men were invited to attack Ms Pélicot. Her husband is said to have used an online platform called coco.fr to contact them between 2011 and 2020.

Detectives have listed a total of 92 rapes committed by 72 men, 51 of whom have been identified.They are all being tried alongside Mr Pélicot , a former employee at French utility company, EDF.

In evidence from previous hearings, he said all the men who slept with his wife ‘knew she was drugged’ without her knowledge. Pélicot said ‘all had free will’ and ‘could have left the premises’ at any time.

Presiding Judge Roger Arata announced first thing on Monday morning that Ms Pélicot would be granted her wish for ‘full publicity’ until the end of the trial.

"Proceedings will be public," said the judge, who is president of a bench composed of five professional magistrates. Ms Pélicot’s lawyer, Antoine Camus, said: "She could have opted for a closed trial, but that’s what her attackers would have wanted."

Despite this, it would be a ‘horrible ordeal,’ said Mr Camus, adding: ‘For the first time, she will have to live through the rapes that she endured over ten years.

The Pélicots shared a large family house and – outwardly – were highly respectable pensioners with family members who visited regularly. Neighbours spoke about them as ‘lovely people’ who held parties around their swimming pool, in a well-kept garden, according to court evidence.

In fact, Pélicot was allegedly a serial rapist who moved his family from greater Paris in 1991, and later allegedly set up the sex ring. It involved advertising on a site for ‘partners’ on an online forum called ‘Without Her Knowing’.

Participants would discuss performing acts on unwitting partners, and then film their depravity, before storing the videos on a USB drive dubbed ‘Abuses’. In Pélicot’s case, the data eventually fell into the hand of police, who confirmed it enabled them to identify the 92 cases of rape. Of the 83 men involved, 51 aged between 26 and 73 were identified and arrested by the police.

Pélicot is said to have sedated his wife by putting tablets of a powerful anxiolytic drug into her evening dinner. He then invited strangers from the online forum into the couple's bedroom, so that his wife could be raped while unconscious. All were told to wash their hands, and not to wear aftershave, so she would not sense they were strangers.

Investigators only learned about the horror in 2020, when Pélicot was arrested in a supermarket in Carpentras for filming up the skirts of other customers.

When police searched his camera phone, and equipment kept at his home, they found all of the abuse images. Alleged rapists involved in the case include civil servants, ambulance workers, soldiers, prison guards, nurses, a journalist, a municipal councillor, and truck drivers.

A fireman accused of raping Ms Pélicot wore his uniform during the attack, one video shows. The fireman's computer contained 728 images of children being sexually abused, say prosecutors.

Some of his accomplices claimed they had no idea the sex was not consensual while one denied it was rape, saying: "It's his wife, he does what he likes with her." The trial continues, and is due to last until December 21.

Schools are the epitome of receiving knowledge and the first step toward the outside world. I got admitted to school at the age of 5. I woke up early, got dressed and went to school. I entered the school premises with my parents. The school was a two-storey-ed building with nine rooms and had a green lawn in the front. I was taken to my class, where other students were sitting. It was a small classroom with a window and six benches. I sat beside a boy who later became my best friend. Our class teacher was amiable and taught us the alphabet. It was a beautiful experience as I made new friends and played with them.

School holds a special place in every student’s heart. Writing essays on such topics will allow kids to revisit this special day. Given here is a short essay for classes 1, 2 and 3 to help kids write essays on the my first day at school in 150 – 250 words.

A school is a primary institution where children go to learn new ideas and habits and receive education while making new friends on the journey. I was admitted to the school when I was 5 years old. It was a primary school, and I was really scared to attend it as it was the first time I had to spend a long time without my parents outside the home. On the first day, I woke up early as it was morning school, wore the new uniform, and reached school with my parents. They dropped me off at the Headmistress’s office, from where I was taken to my class. As I entered my class, I saw a few high benches and low benches where other students were sitting on. I sat on the third bench, where I made a friend who later became my best friend. I loved my first day at school and still cherish the memories.

The first day of school is very different for every kid. Some cry, some get excited, and some feel reluctant about the new environment. A long essay should capture these various emotions and feelings in a streamlined manner. Here is an example of writing an essay on the first day at school for class 3.

My Classroom

On my first day at school, I woke up early and dressed in my new uniform. I went to the school premises with my parents. The premises was huge with green lawns and a two-storey-ed building with nine rooms. I went to the Headmistress’s office and was later taken to my classroom by our class teacher. It was a small yet airy room with some benches and a blackboard. I sat on the third bench where another student was seated, who later became my best friend. Our class teacher was very friendly, and we got to introduce ourselves. I learnt a new alphabet and played with my new friends. We were given the school tour on the first day.

We were shown restrooms, a swing area, a dance room, etc. Though I enjoyed my first day, it wasn’t easy to stay so long without my parents. I missed them terribly. My mother packed my favourite snack for lunch, and I missed her badly then. I remember many kids crying and teachers trying to soothe them and pamper them with toffees. We were given some sheets and colours to enjoy colouring. I recall I was given a butterfly to colour. My friend got a crocodile, and I saw another kid colouring a bird. It was such a fantastic activity. Another activity happened that day; we had to tell the teacher the one thing we instantly liked about the school. I said swings, and my friend said colours. It was a memorable day that I cherish even today.

Introduction To Teachers And Friends

Our class teacher introduced us to other teachers, and we were asked to introduce ourselves. Teachers made us sit alphabetically. Luckily my friend’s name also started with S, like me, so we sat together. We played fun Pictionary games. We were asked to perform our hobbies and were given toffees. It was amazing to meet my best friend, who shared the same hobby, dancing with me. The teacher also read a beautiful story to us. I really loved the overall experience.

This essay will help kids to grow their research, persuasion and analytical skills. Essay writing helps improve writing skills, demonstrate your intelligence, gain knowledge in multiple niches, improve critical and analytical abilities, and improve communication skills.

Narrative Essay on My First Day in School

Narrative essay generator.

Childhood memories are the treasures of our past, vividly painting the innocence, adventures, and joy of our early years. These memories, both sweet and bittersweet, form the mosaic of our identity, influencing who we become. This essay delves into the essence of childhood memories, exploring their impact and significance through a personal journey back in time.

The Magic of Childhood

Childhood: a period of life where every day feels like a new adventure, filled with curiosity and wonder. My childhood was no different. It was a time when the smallest things felt like grand discoveries, from finding a caterpillar in the backyard to the first time I rode a bike without training wheels. These moments, though seemingly small, are monumental in the eyes of a child. They represent growth, learning, and the boundless joy of living.

A Journey Back in Time

One of my most cherished memories takes me back to my grandmother’s house, a quaint cottage nestled in the heart of the countryside. It was a place out of a storybook, surrounded by lush gardens and towering trees that whispered secrets with the wind. My summers there were filled with endless days of exploration, from the crack of dawn until the stars claimed the sky.

The Garden Adventures

The garden was a magical realm where imagination had no bounds. My cousins and I would embark on epic adventures, pretending to be explorers in a mystical land. We built forts out of branches and leaves, declaring them castles of ancient times. The garden was our kingdom, and in it, we were invincible. The laughter and shouts of our play still echo in my mind, a reminder of the carefree joy of youth.

Lessons Learned

Amidst the fun and games, childhood also presented its set of challenges and lessons. I recall a particular rainy day when our garden escapades led to a muddy disaster. Our clothes were stained, and the indoors became a canvas for our muddy footprints. The scolding that followed taught us the importance of responsibility and the consequences of our actions. Yet, even in that moment of admonition, there was love and the gentle guidance towards making better choices.

The Power of Friendship

Childhood is also a time when friendships are formed, bonds that often last a lifetime. I met my best friend under the most unusual circumstances, a mishap during a school play where a missed cue turned into a comedy of errors. Instead of embarrassment, we found laughter and a friendship that stood the test of time. It was through these friendships that I learned the value of trust, support, and the sheer joy of having someone to share life’s moments with.

As the years passed, the innocence of childhood gradually gave way to the responsibilities of adulthood. The endless days of play were replaced by schedules and commitments. Yet, the memories of those carefree days remain, a beacon of light guiding me through life’s challenges. They remind me to find joy in the simple things, to approach life with curiosity, and to cherish the bonds formed in the innocence of childhood.

Childhood memories are more than just moments of the past; they are the foundation upon which we build our future. They teach us lessons, shape our values, and influence our paths. As I reflect on my journey through childhood, I am grateful for the experiences that shaped me, the challenges that strengthened me, and the joy that filled my days. These memories are a precious gift, a reminder of a time of innocence and wonder that continues to inspire and guide me as I navigate the complexities of adulthood.

In the end, our childhood memories are a testament to the beauty of life, a collection of moments that remind us of who we are and where we’ve come from. They are treasures to be cherished, stories to be shared, and lessons to carry with us as we journey through life. For students participating in an essay writing competition, delve deep into your own reservoir of memories, and let the magic of your childhood illuminate your writing. Through your words, you have the power to transport your readers back in time, to relive the wonder, the lessons, and the joy of childhood.

After about two months of summer vacation, our school reopened on the 16th of July, the 15th of July being the Sunday. After a long relaxation of two months inhabits to wake up late in the morning, I got up early in the morning. I took my breakfast and left for school. The school was to open at 9 a.m.

On one hand, I seemed to be quite enthusiastic to be again with my friends whom I really missed during the vacation but on the other, I seemed to be averse to the routine of the school which was not so exhilarating for its disciplined code of attending classes and reading lessons, solving sums and doing laboratory work Still there was something which made this routine somewhat worth doing.

On the way to school, I met my friends. Everyone looked cheerful. As we reached the school gate, we heard the ringing of the call bell. We first buried to our classrooms to keep our bags and then to prayer ground to attend the prayer. At the end of the prayer, our Principal addressed the boys. In his address, the Principal mentioned Wordsworth’s observation, “A twig is bent, so the tree will grow”. In relation to tender and delicate students he said that the minds of students were like photographic plates, whatever impressions are left on them, they retain it. So he advised us to cast the impressions which would include love of the motherland, devotion to duty, regularity, and punctuality. Then at the end of his address, we all went to our classes.

On the first day, we did not have our regular studies. Most of the teachers were busy with new admissions. Moreover, the students were also not in the mood to study. The students were talking about their experiences of the summer vacation. I told them about my visit to Ajanta, Allora, and stay in Nanital for a fortnight. In school, 1 found a large number of changes, broken window panes had been replaced, rooms were whitewashed and the furniture repaired. Everything looked new. The thing which I liked most was the water cooler, which was a great comfort to us in summer.

While we were enjoying gossiping in the class, the bell announced the beginning of the recess period. This year a new canteen was installed in the school. It was run by ‘Students Cooperative Society”. I went to the canteen with my friends. The tea, coffee, cold drinks, and snacks all were available at cheap rates. I had a cold drink and some snacks there. In the meantime, the call bell rang and we all went back to our classes.

After the fifth period, all the students assembled in the hall. The new corners were seated on the stage. At first, the Principal welcomed the new students. Some of them seemed to be very active and smart. They told about their likings and hobbies, which were admirable. In the end, the Principal welcomed the teachers. Soon the function came to an end. returned home with the sweet and happy memories of the day.

My first day at school was the beginning of my life. The day was significant for me and my family. My father had been looking forward to this day with great hope as he wanted that I should adjust in my class and rise in life, through hard work and co-operation.

Early that morning there was much stir in the family. My elder brother was particularly happy. That made him look responsible as I was kept under his charge. My father bought candies and we proceeded towards the school.

I was taken to the Principal’s office. The Principal was a big man with heavy, and bushy eyebrows. I almost dreaded him in the beginning. But soon I found that under those bushy eyebrows he had one of the softest pairs of eyes. And he spoke softly. He patted my back and asked me questions. I answered his questions without any feeling of fear. He talked to my father. Then my father took me to another gentleman who I learnt later was my class teacher.

He was tall, lean, and bespectacled. He greeted my father. He stretched his long arm and took me under his arm. He talked politely to me. My -father gave him the packet of candies and requested him to introduce me to the class and distribute the candies among my classmates. My father then took leave of him.

My teacher took me to my class. He told the boys that I was their new classmate. He then distributed the candies my father had given to him.

I was given a seat in the class. It was a new place and soon I started feeling lonely. Nobody in the class was known to me and no one talked to me. By recess time I was almost fed up with my school. I wanted to go home. The bell rang for recess. The boys from all the classes ran out. They flooded the school courtyard. But I stood alone in the crowd of strangers. I still remember how small I was then. Being unable to bear it any longer I began to cry. It was only a few minutes but it seemed ages before in brother arrived there. With him was another boy whose brother was also studying in my class. He brought him and introduced him to me. This was my first acquaintance in school. After the recess, we re-entered the classroom.

My teacher was told how I had cried during recess. He spoke politely to me. I liked him. I liked my new acquaintance also. Soon I felt calm and since that day I had never cried in school.

Life is full of new experiences. One of them is going to school for the first time.

A school is a place of learning for a child, where they form new associations and come in contact with other children of their age, who may be of different temperaments or status from each other but are placed equally. It is here that they prepare themselves for their future life. This is the reason it is said that the education received in the school is the foundation of a child’s career.

I remember I was only five when I first went to school. I was very excited. It was a primary school. The experience of the first day at school is still fresh in my mind after all these years.

I was admitted to the K.G. Class. The school was small with eight rooms and there were about twelve or fifteen teachers in total.

My Class Teacher Miss Gupta was a very nice and soft-spoken lady who treated all the children like her own. Since I was a bit nervous in the new environment, she encouraged me to open up with the other students of the class.

In school, I got my first lesson on the alphabet in English and after those other lessons on Hindi and Maths. But the lesson I enjoyed most was the drawing, in which we could play with the colours. I also enjoyed other activities like clay modeling, building things with blocks. I would especially like to mention the fun I had on different types of rides and swings.

My first day at school was full of joy.

Whenever I ponder over my school days, the reflection takes me to a meek quiet boy. A reserve guy with quiet habits, feeling shy of everything. I find him dressed in khaki shorts and a white shirt, a pair of bright shining shoes with white socks. Well combed hair and slightly oiled face may be due to perspiration or nervousness. My father was transferred to Jalandhar from Shimla. The transfer came in the mid-session of the fourth class. I moved quite extensively from corner to corner with my father for admission, but everywhere, the answer was negative. It was after laborious efforts that D.A.V. Public School accepted to accommodate me in the new class.

In the next stage, my father left me at the school gate the next day and asked me, to proceed to my class. He perhaps felt that I was grown up enough to protect my own interest. I was moving towards the stairs with a very heavy and hesitant mind. Nobody was known to me except my class teacher who examined my papers for admission. He was perhaps sitting in the classroom because the morning assembly was already over. He was marking attendance as I stood at the entrance gate of the class. I was told that there were forty students in the class and myself was forty-one. Anyway, very reluctantly I peeped into the room. The teacher saw me and said, “Hello Sunil, so you have come. Come in and take your seat with Suresh on the first bench.” The only student on the desk accommodated me very willingly and provided me a seat with a helping and affectionate hand. Soon we were good friends. We were taught a new topic in the social study by the teacher. He asked some questions from the students which were not answered well. I took the initiative and answered all the questions to the best of my knowledge. The teacher was satisfied and enlisted me among the best ten students in the class.

It was recess time soon after and we all started playing in the central ground. Suresh introduced me to many other students of the class. The bell rang and we rushed to the class. Similar phases of the morning session repeated in the next period of Mathematics and English. The concerned teachers appreciated my capability at studies and this helped me to gain better confidence in myself. Soon the periods were over we were asked to pack up for return. My class teacher guided me to proceed towards the bus. The conductor shook hands with me and welcomed me for a good seat. It was a beautiful and well-provided bus. I reached home in an hour. My mother was waiting for me on the main crossing. She asked me about the school and its teaching staff. I gave all the best appreciation to my teachers and told my mother that I had formed a good number of friends and that I enjoyed the day very nicely. She was happy that my silence and hesitation has ultimately wound up for good. She felt happy that I could fit in well in the new setup and atmosphere.

Set 12: essay on my first day in school.

My first day at school is a memorable one. I saw boys go to school and I also felt a keen desire to be among them. One day, when I was hardly seven, my father took me to the school in a neighbouring village at a distance of a kilometre and half from my own. It was a small primary school. There were two teachers, the head teacher and his assistant.

We went straight to the head teacher, as he was already known to my father. The head teacher scanned me from head to foot and remarked that I seemed to be intelligent and promising. My father offered him the sweets that we had brought with us. The sweets were distributed among the students of the school and I was admitted to the first infant class. My father left and I was sent to the assistant teacher.

The assistant teacher was a bug-bear for me. He carried in his hand a big cane. He now beats one boy most mercilessly and then another. I trembled with fear in my shoes. My blood curdled cold in my veins. I cursed my stars. At last, the teacher turned his attention towards me. He taught me the first few letters of the Urdu alphabet and asked me to memorise them. On a gloomy afternoon, with an aching heart, I was cramming the first few letters of the Urdu alphabet. What on earth did they mean? What was their sense? It all seemed absolute rigmarole to me. However, there was one thing I could always do; I could learn by heart. In due course, the teacher returned.

“Have you learned it?” he asked. “I think I can say it, Sir,” I replied. I gabbled it off. He seemed to be satisfied with it. My fears were a bit allayed. I hated the school. What a life of anxiety at the school! I wept in my heart at the loss of my freedom. I yearned for my mother’s kisses, love and tenderness. I badly missed the cakes and biscuits. I badly missed my friends. I was deprived of my games and pranks. I lost all smiles and joy. I counted the minutes and hours to the end of the daily round of school.

200 During the recess period, all my class fellows crowded around me. One pulled my ear, another my shirt and the third pulled my hair. A boy knocked me to the gro ground. I received bruises on my knees and elbows. I could not help crying.

At 4 o’clock, the last bell rang. I made for home along with my village fellows. I told everything to my mother. I wept but she consoled me and advised me to bear it all. My fears were not dispelled. But there was no way out of it. I must go to school and face the teacher’s rod.

The function was full of performances. I played the lead in our class play and received applause.

250 Words Essay on My Best Day at School

Introduction.

Every day at school brings new experiences, shaping us for what we become in life. However, one particular day stands out in my memory: the day I won the state-level debate competition.

The Preparation

The day started with a sense of anticipation. I had spent weeks preparing for the debate, researching and refining my arguments. I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness as I stepped onto the school bus, my mind filled with the points I planned to articulate.

At the competition, I was up against the best debaters from other schools. Each speaker brought a unique perspective, making the event a rich tapestry of thoughts and ideas. As I waited for my turn, I could feel the weight of the occasion, but I also felt ready.

The Triumph

When I finally began speaking, the words flowed naturally. I made my arguments with conviction, challenging the opposing viewpoints with well-researched facts and logical reasoning. The applause that followed my speech was deafening. I knew I had made an impact, but the best was yet to come.

The Best Moment

The moment of triumph came when the judges announced the winners. Hearing my name as the state champion was an indescribable feeling. I was ecstatic, but more than that, I felt a deep sense of satisfaction. All the hard work and preparation had paid off.

That day at school was the best because it taught me the value of hard work and the thrill of achievement. It was a testament to the power of preparation, determination, and belief in oneself. It was my best day at school, not just because I won, but because I experienced the joy of striving for something and achieving it.

500 Words Essay on My Best Day at School

Every student’s journey is marked by memorable experiences, days that stand out among the mundane routine of school life. Among these, my best day at school remains etched in my memory, not because of any extraordinary event, but due to the profound impact it had on my personal growth and understanding of the world.

The Unexpected Day

The day started like any other, with the usual morning assembly and classes. However, the real twist came when our literature teacher announced an impromptu debate. The topic was “Technology: A Boon or Bane for Society?” I’ve always been a bit of an introvert, preferring the company of books over people. The idea of standing in front of the class and speaking was daunting, to say the least.

Stepping Out of the Comfort Zone

With a racing heart and trembling hands, I decided to participate. I was allotted the side arguing that technology is a boon. Despite my initial anxiety, I started researching the topic, focusing on how technology has revolutionized healthcare, education, and communication.

As I was preparing my arguments, I realized that my fear of public speaking was holding me back from expressing my thoughts. This revelation was a turning point, pushing me to confront my fear head-on.

The debate started, and one by one, students presented their views. The room was filled with nervous energy, excitement, and intellectual stimulation. As my turn approached, my heartbeat quickened. But I reminded myself of the research I had done, the arguments I had prepared, and the desire to overcome my fear.

The Aftermath

When the debate ended, I was flooded with a sense of accomplishment. My teacher appreciated my arguments and the courage I showed by participating despite my fear. My classmates, too, congratulated me, their words of praise boosting my confidence.

That day was my best at school because it taught me an invaluable lesson: stepping out of one’s comfort zone is essential for personal growth. It made me realize that our fears and insecurities should not limit us from exploring new avenues. Instead, they should motivate us to push our boundaries and evolve.

In retrospect, it wasn’t just a debate; it was a stepping stone towards becoming a more confident and expressive individual. The experience shaped my perspective on fear and self-growth, making it a day I will always cherish. The best day at school, therefore, may not be about winning a competition or achieving academic success; it might be about overcoming personal challenges and growing as an individual.

They brought me to the headmaster’s room. Later I knew that the headmaster was a friend of my father. He asked me a few basic questions about letters and poems. I learned so many poems and knew all the letters, and I answered him properly. Then I got admitted there.

My father took me to the teachers’ room where our class teacher was sitting. She took an entry in a notebook about me and asked me a couple of questions. I was feeling uncomfortable but I gave all the answers properly. She was happy about me and I understood that with her smile.

Then she took me from my father and went to the classroom. I was feeling really weird and wanted to cry. I found lots of kids were sitting there who are like me, at my age. Then I sit beside one and started my first ever school class. I can’t forget that day.

I couldn’t even sleep in the night. My mother gets up early in the morning and wakes me up too. And then I took a bath and wear the best clothes for me. We went to Snanghan Govt. Primary School with my mother and my aunty. They were encouraging me and describing the good environment in the school.

Finally, we arrived there and they took me to the teachers’ room. I can remember, Rumi madam was our class teacher. She asked me a few questions about my letters and poems knowledge. I was good at these because my mother taught me before. I answered every question properly.

She took my name and information in the notebook and let me go to the classroom. That was for the first time, I was entering a classroom in my whole life. I was really excited and loving that moment. I can’t forget that feeling at all. I won’t forget this special day in my whole life.
