my first day at school

In Australia the school year in feb to dec. to start kindergarten you have to be 5 by the end of June of the school year. BUT you must also be 4 and 9 months, so technically you have to be 5 by the end of april. OR you could be me and start school when you are 4 and 9 months - mid march!
I started school after everyone else. I remember being taken to visit my teacher and being shown my desk with my name on it. Most of my memories from the first year of school involve sitting on the carpet with my legs wrapped around the leg of a desk.
