Going to School
My mother got me ready
for school then I had to wait for her to brush my hair and place every strand
in just the perfect
position.
I had to show her my
shoes that I had cleaned the night before and my school bag had to be neatly
put on my shoulder before I could
get near the door.
Only after my mother was totally satisfied, would I be allowed to rush out of
the front door.
I would leave home at
7 am on the dot and make my way down the lane. After a walk of about 700 metres
I would be able to see the tall steeple of the
school.
The playground would
be full in the summer and the noise would make me want to rush into the yard
and get into a good game of football before the bell
ringing.
