It was a special and emotional day for both children and parents. The school welcomed 22 young pupils<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFor many children, this was their first time going to school. Teachers prepared fun activities to help the children feel comfortable in their new classroom. These activities <\/strong>also helped the children make friends and enjoy learning together.<\/p>\n\n\n\nParents felt happy but also a little worried. One parent shared that his family prepared by buying school supplies and making a daily routine <\/strong>at home. Another parent said he helped his child wake up early and feel excited about school.<\/p>\n\n\n\nKindergarten is an important step for children. They learn basic skills, make friends, and gain confidence <\/strong>in a new environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSource: Borneo Bulletin<\/sub><\/p>\n\n\n\nComprehension Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
