Well, starting a new school can be very scary . I am speaking from experience leaving my home town was something i never thought of but then on 2021 when i was going to be in the eleventh grade i had to . I went to Dalindyebo high school , a school situated at Umtata under the O.R Tambo inland district . Well , i was very nervous to be a new comer , yes ” iqhwetsi ” that’s the name i was given . It was going to be my first time living in boarding school and i had to learn how to live with other people . To my surprise i met wonderful souls i’m referring to my school mates ,roomates and including teachers. Academically , i was not performing very well especially in maths as i was doing pure maths . The only subject that i loved was Agricultural science which of course was taught by one of my favourite teachers ‘Miss Mazula. Well , miss Mazula was a very loving and caring teacher. It was really great living in hostel , the matrons were very kind too . I really enjoyed there because i was experiencing new things in my life and learning different things from different people . The hostel really became a home to me . I would hear other new learners saying that they miss their homes but i did not relate to what they were saying. Well , by the end of the year i passed grade 11 with level 3 in both maths and physics . I had a hope that in grade 12 everything was going to be fine and i was speaking the truth.
