First day at school
1.B
Welcome first graders
In Croatia, there aren’t any opening ceremonies on the
first day of school. All students, except for the first grad-
ers, start with their regular classes. The first graders come
to school with their parents and have a small gathering
in their classroom with their teacher. They get to know
each other and then take a walk around school to see
where everything is. Teachers usually prepare some small
gifts for the students, wishing them good luck in their
first year and they take photos to have a reminder of
that important step in their lives.
