1.  Describe your first day at school 

• Where it was ?

Sample answer: 

School is a part and parcel of everyone’s life. A school is a temple of learning which is important for every child. It gives a chance to children to acquire knowledge in various fields. 

* building (structure of school) 

* teachers 

* friends 

In my childhood, I studied in a convent school named Foster situated in sector-10 Chandigarh. The school is a senior secondary school divided in primary, secondary and higher secondary sections. It has a double storeyed building with 50 classrooms, a library, music and a dance room, a science and computer lab, a reception area, a big playground containing cricket pitch, basket ball court and colourful swings for primary section and a huge parking space. The classrooms are spacious, well ventilated with adequate light facilities. The school has a beautiful auditorium with sitting arrangement of 500 where all the competition and co-curricular activities are conducted. It had double-walled construction for heat insulation, high-efficiency air-conditioning systems, solar energy usage, and wastewater recycling and treatment. All the classrooms across the school were enabled with smart boards. They facilitate the learning of the students. The interactive board turned a typical classroom into a fun learning environment.

I studied in this school from Nursery to class 10th. I feel proud to say that in spite of ‘N’ number of schools in my city, my school is known for its landmark education. I was fortunate to study in the school which is famous for imparting quality education. The school not only provides bookish knowledge, but also practical skills. It prepares a child for living a life. 

The teachers, in this school are exceptional with remarkable qualities. They are co-operative and supportive. They are like mothers to little children in the school. The role is not limited to teaching academic subjects. They focus on all round development of a child. They act like guiding lamp for a student. They are energetic and enthusiastic. It is really well said that’ teaching is a profession that creates all other professions’. 

Friendship is boon. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Good friends are always caring, loving, loyal, passionate. You learn how to understand people and trust others. Friendship is one of the most precious gifts of life. A person who has true friends in life is lucky enough Friendship makes life thrilling. It makes life sweet and pleasant experience. Friendship is indeed, an asset in life. Friendship is both good and necessary. Man cannot live all alone. He is a social being. He needs someone to share his joys and sorrows. Generally, it is only the people of the same age, character and background, mentality, etc., who can understand him and understand his problems. Friends are needed for support and for sharing. Friendship is an elixir which is essential for a happy life.

Part -3 ( Follow ups)

1. 1. Do you think students should be taken to school by their parents or go by themselves? 

Children in primary classes should not go to school by themselves. Either the parents should drop them, or they should arrange a van or bus. Children in high school and secondary school can go on their own.


2. Should children rely on their parents or be independent?
Children should rely on their parents till they are studying. Once they complete their studies, they should start earning and become independent.

3. How can children become more independent?
Children can become more independent if parents let them take small decisions on their own when they are very young. If parents allow children some freedom, then children can become independent very soon. It also depends on education and job. If children start earning, they can become independent very soon.

4. 4. What is the effect if parents interfere with children’s life too much?

If parents interfere with children’s lives too much, they either become rebels or withdraw into a shell and become introverts. Their personality is snubbed, and they cannot develop to their full potential.
