For older students, the first day at a new school is about new teachers and new friends. Here are paragraphs for Class 8 and Class 10.
Paragraph for Class 8 (120 Words)
I will never forget my first day at my new school. I woke up early and checked my bag twice. My heart beat fast as I stepped through the gate.
A teacher at the gate welcomed us and showed us to our class. I sat in the second row. The boy beside me smiled and said his name was Kabir. We talked about cricket and soon became friends.
The teachers introduced themselves and told us the rules. At lunch, Kabir took me around the school. I saw the library, the lab and the ground.
By the end of the day, I felt at home. I knew that I would be happy here.
Paragraph for Class 10 (150 Words)
In Class 10, I moved to a new school. I was worried about the new place and the board exam year. But the first day eased many of my fears.
The principal spoke to us about the year ahead. She said that hard work and a calm mind would take us far. Our class teacher gave us a plan for the year.
I met classmates from different towns. We shared our stories and made a study group in a few hours. The teachers were friendly and clear about what they expected.
When I came home, I told my parents that I felt ready. That day gave me the courage to start the year well. I still think about it with a smile.
