Today is the reopening day for B.G.S National Public School and First day for Rismi. She is just 3.1 and she was pretty excited and curious to go to bigger school. I was glad that we'd visited the school beforehand, so Rismi had a taste of what was behind those big doors.

| I am ready to face the World !!! |
I was really apprehensive on Rismi's first day at BGS - NPS, even though she had been attending a play school for a year of her three years. She got ready with her school uniform. She just seemed so tiny and cute in her little grey skirt and school Jumper/Blazer.

For the first three days, the School Management allowed the parents in the school bus and one day in the class room to accompany the kid till the new environment gets familiarized for the child . We reached the school at 9.10 am and the classes started by 9.20 am. Even though Rismi had mixed really well with the other children in her Play group, being faced with 100 new school friends, all of who seemed to dwarf her, was quite scary, even for me.

I felt better the first time I saw the classroom - it was a real joy, full of colour, artwork and large tables with small chairs. While the other kids have a fear of separation from their mom, Rismi is very cool. She is so eager to be at school. She is so excited to attend the class while other kids who are older than her are crying.

The class room is crowded and noisy as the parent also with the kid, moreover many kids are crying. Rismi let go of my hand straight away and shot to the corner of the room, really excited by it all. I stayed for perhaps 30 minutes that first day. I felt happier by the minute and I think Rismi had forgotten that may be I was not staying too. When I started edging towards the door, she did look a bit distressed and insisted on a cuddle, but when a classroom assistant led her away, she seemed OK .

We waited for her to return and when she returned , she was so happy and smiling and tired too.. I was really proud of her. She did not trouble me much to get ready and to mingle with the other kids and with her class teachers. We happily back to home in the school Bus.

Now she is in PP-I 'C' Section [Pre-Primary-I] and she has two class teachers, their names are Padma and Tasneem. Her class teacher told me that, She is well behaved in the class room and mingling nicely with other kids. And Rismi is also enjoying and loves to go to school .

I am so happy that she liked the school and enjoyed the first day at school. And hoping for the same in coming days !!!
