This year, six prep students joined Yering Primary School on Thursday January 30, to start a new chapter in their lives.
The six children consist of a pair of twins, a pair of siblings and two others.
Teaching principal Deanna Cole said she saw a couple of tears and some anxiety about starting school on the first day.
“For the first week, we just settle them in and make them feel comfortable,” she said.
“We’ll just start off with some simple things to settle them in, getting to know them and them getting to know the school routine. We’ll get into the real work next week.
“We’ll make sure there’s always enough staff that can deal with anyone who is feeling anxious about school or so.”
