Anxiety for parents on first day of primary school standard one


I took some first day pictures of parents and children of standard one on the first day of primary school at SRJK (C) Puay Chai in SS2, Petaling Jaya city.



This child (foreground, right) giving the thumbs up and seems eager about facing the first day of school.


For some, the first day at school can be quite an experience. Some parents are also inside the classroom to ensure their children are comfortable in the new enviromenmt.


Children finding unfamiliar faces and putting a brave front.


Some children are excited and look great to go to school as they have new friends to play with and that was what they looked forward.


The ones anxious and worrying are the parents, not their children! You can see these parents anxiously hanging around the school finding it difficult to separate their children.


It's understandable for parents to be anxious about how their children will cope at school.


Parents anxioulsy peeping through the windows to see their children starting into the world on their own for the first time.


New standard one children gathering at the school hall before heading off to their respective classrooms.


Spotted two RELA personnel at SRJK (C) Puay Chai in SS2, PJ directing traffic flow and ensuring safety of children and parents crossing the road in front of the school.
