My First Day at Junior High School

Last year, I had my first day at junior high school. I was very excited and nervous at the same time. I
woke up early in the morning, got dressed in my new uniform, and had breakfast quickly. My mother
walked me to school, which was not far from our house.

First, I went to the school hall for the orientation program. The principal gave a welcome speech and
introduced the teachers. After that, we were guided to our classrooms by our homeroom teacher. In
the classroom, I met my new classmates and our homeroom teacher, Mr. Smith. He explained the
school rules and the subjects we would be studying.

Next, we had a tour of the school. We visited the library, science lab, and sports facilities. Everything
looked so new and exciting. After the tour, we returned to our classroom and had our first lesson,
which was English. Mr. Smith gave us a simple writing task to introduce ourselves.

Finally, the school day ended, and my mother was waiting for me at the school gate. I told her all about
my day on our way home. I felt happy and relieved that my first day went well, and I was looking
forward to the rest of the school year.
My first day at junior high school was a memorable experience. I made new friends and learned a lot
about my new school. It was the beginning of a new chapter in my life, and I was excited about what
