Polly's family had just moved to Tampines. They had a new house there. Polly liked her new house. It was bigger than the old one. But she was not happy about having to go to a new school. Her old school was too far away. Polly had many friends in the old school~ She did not know anyone in the new school.

      On her first day, Polly was very shy. She did not talk to .anyone in the class. She sat at the back of the class. She did not feel very happy. Mrs Sarip, the class teacher, asked Julie to take Polly to the bookshop to buy some exercise books. Julie held Polly's hand and took her downstairs. On the way, Julie told Polly about the teacher and the other children in the class. She made Polly laugh. By the time they came back to the classroom, they had become good friends.
