Hey everyone

My first day back at face to face college went well even though I was anxious at first. It was all very strange. There were people to take you to class and things to do for your hands and wipe the desks. All the desks were far apart for distancing.

Hi,

Glad it went well! All the best with your studies. Remember if you are feeling anxious, so will your peers. You could be really confident a simple " hello" will make other people feel less anxious and you could make friends easily because they will remember that you were friendly on the first day. People always remember the first day and who said what to who. Well done and keep up the good work.

Hello

I hope you are settling back at college. I am sure everyone else was also feeling a bit nervous too. You sound like you have done really well.

The new rules might feel a bit strange at first, but hopefully you will get used to them. My son's school has a one way system that he found difficult at first, but he says he doesn't notice it as much now.

All the best

Sarah
