When I came here there weren’t very many classrooms. I stayed in the car and mum did every thing she could do to get me out of the car. The time went on and the sister came out and she tried to get me out of the car. Still wouldn't.
So in the end mum took me home and when I got back home to mum and dad’s farm, mum said sit there, so I sat there and I sat there, and I sat there. Then she said get back in the car because it was now the afternoon and I came back to school and the kids got back into the car and we came home and that was the end of it. Then the next morning arrived and what did I have to do, get out of the car. I did that, but funnily enough I decided I didn't want to sit at home all day long when I heard what the other 4 children had told me what they were doing at school so I got out of the car and came on in and yes I did have something a bit different about me, it was my clothes, but somehow that just faded into the distance and from that day onwards,
I had some girls come up to me wanting to be friends in Form 2 and I never looked back. And I loved every moment of when I was here, other than when I had to do, guess what, spelling, writing and arithmetic. But all the other things like sports, which I still love, and a few other things, I just loved it.
