Tick tock
Time is moving
Look at the clock
Be wide awake
School term is starting
You’re now grade one, cupcake
From the rest you took
It’s time for bathing
For a fresh new look
Come let’s cook
I know you love eating
Let’s see what we can make
Grab that book
The school bus is waiting
Education isn’t something to lack
You’re a unique snowflake
Everyday you’re growing
Protect your spark
Shine in the dark.
