0:00:56 > 0:00:58the bacciasaurus.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02- You mean the Brachiosaurus dinosaur. - Yes.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Or, or we could go see the football with Dad.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08I'm afraid it's early nights for you this weekend.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11- Why?- You're back at school next week.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14- Already?- I'm afraid so.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17- Oh!- But you like school.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21Yeah. And I'll see Charlie, Marshall and Ying.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Um, I'm not sure about that.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26- What?- We're in a new house now.
0:01:26 > 0:01:30I don't think you'll be seeing your old friends for a while.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33But you will be meeting some lovely new kids.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35What do you think, T-Rex?
0:01:37 > 0:01:38It'll be fun?
0:01:39 > 0:01:41- OK.- Good.
0:01:41 > 0:01:46We've got to head out and see Kobi about this washing machine.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47Come on.
0:01:50 > 0:01:51Pass it to me!
0:01:53 > 0:01:55PHONE RINGS
0:01:55 > 0:01:57'Who is it?'
0:01:58 > 0:02:00- It's Mali!- And his gran!
0:02:00 > 0:02:03'Could you let them in please, girls?'
0:02:03 > 0:02:06- Hi!- Hello! - 'I'll be out in just a moment.'- Hi!
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Hello, girls.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11BOTH: Hi.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14Guys, guess what? I'm starting a new school next week.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16No way.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- Exciting.- Next week?
0:02:19 > 0:02:22- Uh-huh.- What school do you go to, Sam?
0:02:22 > 0:02:25The excellent, the coolest, Apple Tree Primary School.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29- That's your school too. - We'll all be in the same school.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32ALL: Ahh!
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Told you, exciting, exciting.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37It'll be so much fun.
0:02:37 > 0:02:38Phew, that's a relief.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Mali was a little worried.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44Tell me what you like about your school.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48Apple Tree Primary School is the best school ever and it's not far
0:02:48 > 0:02:50from where we live.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52It's amazing.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58On the way to school, the lovely lollipop lady helps out at the
0:02:58 > 0:03:00zebra crossing.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Just so we get to the big school gate.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Ta-da!
0:03:05 > 0:03:06BELL RINGS
0:03:06 > 0:03:11In my classroom, everyone is friendly, especially the class pet,
0:03:11 > 0:03:12Nibbles the hamster.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18He's called Nibbles because he nibbles everything.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Our school is perfect.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Well, apart from maybe...
0:03:23 > 0:03:25school dinners.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29They always serve spaghetti Bolognese
0:03:29 > 0:03:32and everyone knows I hate spaghetti Bolognese.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36It's all a little bit too tangly!
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Oh, and there's just one more thing.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42We get to wear school uniform.
0:03:42 > 0:03:46- You wear uniforms? - Yeah, I know, how cool.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49They wear uniforms at their new school.
0:03:49 > 0:03:53Uniforms are just another form of clothes, Mali, try not to worry.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55'Right, that's the shower fixed.'
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Sorry to keep you waiting.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00I hope you weren't in a rush.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04No, I've come to remind you to have a look at our washing machine.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08Oh, sure. But apart from that rumbling, grumbling
0:04:08 > 0:04:12old washing machine, how are you guys settling in? Young man?
0:04:12 > 0:04:17- It's OK.- Nadeem is putting away all the removal boxes at last.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22Anyway, we've got to fly, I need to get on with Mali's dinner.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25- Bye, see you later. - Bye.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Come on, in you go.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42Nadeem, I thought you were putting these boxes away.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45'Has anyone seen my boots?'
0:04:45 > 0:04:46Dad.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47That man.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00A new job? Yeah, I'm really excited.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Starting next week, yep.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05First thing.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07With the elephants?
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Oh, OK, that's great.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15I really need to find my work boots.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19Mali, guess what came through the post today?
0:05:22 > 0:05:25We could even dress up as pirates while we read it.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31How about we start building that new robot.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34- You've been wanting to do it for ages.- No, thank you.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36- CLATTER - Aaaargh!
0:05:36 > 0:05:43Or how about superhero Mali helps me find what your dad is looking for?
0:05:43 > 0:05:45No, thank you.
0:05:45 > 0:05:46Shock, horror.
0:05:46 > 0:05:51Mali, you have never turned down the chance of being a superhero.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- What's wrong?- School uniforms.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56I don't believe it.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59I've never worn school uniform in my life.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02I think once you've tried it on, you'll love it!
0:06:05 > 0:06:10But this school uniform doesn't sound very good for me.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14Like lady lollipops and zebras on the road.
0:06:14 > 0:06:19I'm not sure I'd like zebras crossing the road with me.
0:06:19 > 0:06:20The school sounds scary.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26They have strange things like pets that nibble all your books, so you
0:06:26 > 0:06:28can't ever read.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33And you can't even eat because you got all tangled in
0:06:33 > 0:06:35spaghetti Bolognese.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38And what if the uniform doesn't fit me?
0:06:38 > 0:06:41LAUGHTER
0:06:41 > 0:06:44I just want to go back to my old school.
0:06:44 > 0:06:49Mali, you'll look so smart and grown-up,
0:06:49 > 0:06:52and you'll never know until you give it a shot.
0:06:52 > 0:06:56Next week is your first day at your new school and do you
0:06:56 > 0:06:59know who else has their first day next week?
0:06:59 > 0:07:03- Ohhhh! - CLATTER
0:07:03 > 0:07:05- Dad?- Yes.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09It's his first day at his new job at the zoo.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12And guess what? By the strange way he's acting,
0:07:12 > 0:07:16something tells me he's also very nervous about his first day,
0:07:16 > 0:07:18just like you.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22- Mm.- Sometimes what grown-ups have to go through
0:07:22 > 0:07:25is not so different from you kids.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- MALI LAUGHS - What?
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- Nadeem, what on Earth? - It's all so stressful.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34I'm starting at the zoo but I can't find my work boots.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37And I'm not sure of the fastest way to get there.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Is it the bus 52 or the bus 43?
0:07:43 > 0:07:45You know I can't be late on my first day.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Will the people at work like me?
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Especially my boss.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55And most important, will the animals like me?
0:07:56 > 0:08:00It's really important that you get along with the animals.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Especially the elephants.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06ELEPHANTS TRUMPET
0:08:06 > 0:08:10Be honest, guys, do you think these things fit me?
0:08:10 > 0:08:12LAUGHTER
0:08:12 > 0:08:14BELL RINGS
0:08:14 > 0:08:15It's Kobi.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Oh, hello, Kobi.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19- Come in.- Hi, everybody.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23I've come to fix the washing machine with a bad case of indigestion.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Hey, Mali.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30Hey, you look as if you've got something on your mind.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34It's his first day at Apple Tree School next week and he is feeling
0:08:34 > 0:08:36very nervous. The funny thing is,
0:08:36 > 0:08:41it's also Nadeem's first day at the zoo and he's also feeling nervous.
0:08:41 > 0:08:45I've got two very nervous boys on my hands, Kobi, what shall I do?
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Ah!
0:08:47 > 0:08:51Well, a new day at school is a new adventure.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53A new adventure?
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Yes. Reminds me of an old African proverb -
0:08:56 > 0:09:00one cannot stop sleeping because of the fear of bad dreams.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Courage is the father of success.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09I can see you've got an emergency going on here but I think, maybe,
0:09:09 > 0:09:12we can leave the washing machine until later.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Mali, follow me.
0:09:25 > 0:09:26Fear of a new adventure?
0:09:28 > 0:09:30I've seen this loads of times.
0:09:30 > 0:09:35So I think I've got an idea that can help you feel better.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38See, told you Bella's mum could help.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40- Really?- Absolutely.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43You see, I work at your new school.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45And every term I see lots of kids
0:09:45 > 0:09:47that feel exactly the way you do now.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50So, if there's something you're not very good at,
0:09:50 > 0:09:54what's the best way to master that very thing?
0:09:56 > 0:09:57Practise.
0:09:57 > 0:10:01Exactly. Practise and that's what we'll do.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04- A practice run for school. - That sounds less scary.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08Good. First we'll practise the school run, to make sure it's fun
0:10:08 > 0:10:11and not scary. Then we'll check out the school, to make sure
0:10:11 > 0:10:14there's no creepy monsters lying in wait.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18- Can you show me the playground? - Definitely.- That's the spirit.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23# No matter if you're young or old
0:10:24 > 0:10:28# To leave your home is never cool
0:10:28 > 0:10:32# We all get sad, if truth be told
0:10:32 > 0:10:34# But nothing's gonna beat
0:10:34 > 0:10:36# Your first day at school
0:10:39 > 0:10:41# First days, new days
0:10:41 > 0:10:43# All the very best days

0:11:06 > 0:11:09# It's not so bad to have to leave
0:11:09 > 0:11:13# Cos where we go we take our fun
0:11:13 > 0:11:18# Meet new friends, live out our dreams
0:11:18 > 0:11:21# New friends, new starts, we can live out our dreams
0:11:21 > 0:11:25# New friends, new starts, we can live out our dreams
0:11:25 > 0:11:27# First days, new days
0:11:27 > 0:11:28# Are the very best days

0:11:38 > 0:11:40# It will be all right. #
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Actually, it looks nice.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44Good.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47But I still don't know how to make new friends.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51Ah, to make new friends, you have to be friendly.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54Remember, big heart, big smile.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56HE SIGHS
0:11:56 > 0:12:00Mali, remember when you first arrived at Apple Tree House,
0:12:00 > 0:12:02did you know me or Bella?
0:12:02 > 0:12:07- No.- Remember what you said when you first met Bella?
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Mm. Yes. "Hello,
0:12:09 > 0:12:13"I'm Mali and I've just moved in, and I'm looking for some mangoes."
0:12:13 > 0:12:15LAUGHTER
0:12:15 > 0:12:19That's true. Your first day at school won't be any different to
0:12:19 > 0:12:21your first day at Apple Tree House.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24- How do I look in this?- Great. - Really good, Dad.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27- Thanks.- What about your feet?
0:12:27 > 0:12:31- Oh, no. My work boots. - Er, Nadeem, don't you remember?
0:12:31 > 0:12:35They had holes in them, so we had to chuck them out before the move.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37- Oh, no!- But...
0:12:39 > 0:12:41- Ta-da!- Oh!
0:12:41 > 0:12:43We got you some new boots.
0:12:43 > 0:12:44LAUGHTER
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Thank you. Did you know about this?
0:12:49 > 0:12:53And before I knew it, I was off to school in my new uniform.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56At lunchtime, I thought I'd be brave
0:12:56 > 0:12:58and go out and make some new friends.
0:13:00 > 0:13:05Luckily, Emily from my class spotted me and came over.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09She asked me if I'd like to join in their game of football.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13I said - "Yes, that would be great".
0:13:13 > 0:13:17I got to make loads of new friends playing a game I love.
0:13:17 > 0:13:22- And guess what? - You scored the winning goal?
0:13:22 > 0:13:23Yes!
0:13:25 > 0:13:28And that was one of the best parts of my day at school.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31It all turned out well after all.
0:13:31 > 0:13:32LAUGHTER
0:13:32 > 0:13:35You're a good friend, Mali.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37And you're great friend, Sam.
