New notebooks, fresh routines and a satisfying back-to-school energy are what excite me about a new academic year. This year is like a clean slate and I look at it as a chance to start afresh—better habits and bigger goals. I’m thrilled about new classes, different teachers and a chance to excel in all subjects this year. There are numerous possibilities. An elective might capture my interest and become a passion. Additionally, the feeling of accomplishment after completing a challenging project is something I eagerly look forward to. On the social side, I’m excited to see my friends every day and share our stories from the summer. I’m also embracing the chance to meet new people, whether it’s at club sign-ups or in the cafeteria. I can’t wait to experience the small surprises ahead, knowing the year will pass in the blink of an eye!

This year, I plan to participate in more extracurricular activities so that I can explore my talents and develop a well-rounded personality. I mainly plan to participate in sports to improve my focus and engage in arts and crafts to enhance my creativity. Balancing academics with extracurriculars will help me manage my time well and build my confidence.

I’m excited to step into the new academic year with new teachers to inspire us and new books to dive into. I have improved my volleyball skills and aspire to win many trophies for my school. I will work hard in both my studies and volleyball and try to achieve success in both.

I am a little nervous about the new school year because I am going to class 3 and am unsure about the new things I’ll be taught. However, I am also excited about the chance to make new friends and meet my teachers again. This year, I will also make efforts to change my naughty behaviour.
