MY LAST DAY AT SCHOOL
“School is a building which has four walls with tomorrow inside”. No one can forget the days of school life, especially the first day and the last day at school. The memories of school always remain with everyone. Sincere friendships, little quarrels, rewards and rebukes by loving teachers, classrooms games, playgrounds, in short, everything lives in the treasure of sweet memories. I do remember my last day at school with full details. I was very happy. That day, I got up a little earlier than usual. I took bath, said prayer and wore my finest dress. In the meanwhile, my friends came and I left for school with them. We were on our bicycles. Soon we reached the school. It was richly decorated. The students of 9th class welcomed all the 10th class students warmly at the gate. We parked our bicycles at the stand and went to the hall. It was also furnished. Everyone was busy in chatting happily. At 10 am the “Farewell Party” formally began with the recitation of the Holy Quran and Na’at Sharif. Then, our worthy principal addressed us, advised us and prayed for us. Our beloved teachers also gave us blessings and hints to be successful in life as well as in exams. “Real heroes don’t wear caps, they teach”. Time to have a delicious meal came. We were taken to the dining hall. Our teachers also joined us in the feast. A number of tasty dishes were served. We ate heartily. Coffee in the end doubled the pleasure. Now it was time to depart and to say “Goodbye” to our alma mater, to our fatherly teachers and to our classmates. We left the school with a heavy heart and came back. This day always reminds me my golden period of life which I spent at school. “Memories are the timeless treasure of the heart”.
