By Friday, she was all ready and eager to go to school. But she kept telling Mummy that Mummy must "go inside" with her - go into the classroom. Mummy said we'll have to ask the teachers.
But there was no chance to ask the teachers. She was led into the assembly hall by a teacher so quickly that Mummy didn't get to say a proper good-bye. And as soon as she realised that Mummy didn't enter the hall, Nadine started crying. She ran back to Mummy. A teacher offered to carry her. With a shattered heart, Mummy let the teacher carry Nadine away, and went to peek into the hall thru another door. A few teachers took turns to carry and calm Nadine. Feeling helpless, Mummy decided to go off to work.
Mummy went back to fetch Nadine home after school. This time, she was a happy child. Smiled as she gave Mummy a big, tight hug. The teachers said she did really well. No more crying after they went into the classroom and was participative. Mummy felt really proud of Nadine!
