School is a place we go to learn,
Where we sit in seats, pages we turn.
But before we enter, we stop at the door,
To wave goodbye to parents and friends once more.

We walk down the steps, and onto the street,
Towards the bus stop, where we'll take a seat.
The bus pulls up, we climb aboard,
And take a window seat, we can't be ignored.

We gaze out the window as we drive down the street,
And see all the sights, it's quite a treat.
We pass by a bench where people rest,
And see kids walking, they're doing their best.

We arrive at school, and walk through the door,
To start our day of learning, and so much more.
But we'll always remember the journey we took,
On the bus, past the bench, with every step we took.

2. Why is it important to say goodbye to your parents before entering school?
3. What did you see outside the window during your journey to school?
4. How did you feel when you arrived at school?
5. Do you think the journey to school is an important part of your day? Why or why not?
