A South African mom by the name of Khanya Thembane took the time to share the adorable journey of her daughter's introduction into Grade 1. A Twitter thread that began on 19 January, 2022, showed off the child's brand new school shoes and highlighted the mixture of emotions felt by Thembane.
An update followed a few days later and the poor little one seems to have had her first taste of the real world. The replacement of play and nap time with work and eating has made her realise that big school is not her thing.
It didn't take long for her to express her distaste for the new environment, however, the little girl didn't approach the situation without solutions and quickly asked her mom to send her back to her previous teacher, Miss Thompson.

The thread was met with responses from a range of people many of whom can personally relate to the hilarious ordeal. Thembane has taken the time to assure her daughter that everything will be okay.

"Character development": Student carries whole suitcase to school, South Africans in tears
In more funny back-to-school news, Briefly News previously reported that South Africans could not seem to get over an image posted by Twitter user @iam_donii of a young learner lugging a travel suitcase through class.
The red suitcase, which was almost half the height of the student when placed upright, may just be the easiest way for the pupil to transport their workbooks around the school. Unfortunately for the young child, he seemed to be the only one with a suitcase.
The post reached thousands of online users with many South Africans expressing their sympathy for the learner. A few comments highlight the difficulty that learners face when having to transport all their school supplies.
