-Hello.

-Hello.

-TOGETHER: It's us!

-Topsy.

-And Tim.

'It's the day we start school. I'm wide awake. Come on!'

'On the day we started big school, I woke up very early,

'I was too excited to sleep.'

Tim, are you awake?

I can't sleep anymore.

Tim, wake up. We're starting big school today.

TIM YAWNS

Shh-Shh! You'll wake up Mummy and Dad.

It's still really dark outside, look.

-Oh, yeah.

-I can only just see our twin swings

from in the bathroom window.

-I love our twin swings.

-Me too.

Do you remember when Dad built the twin swings

-and he lost all the bolts?

-Oh, yeah.

And do you remember, we found the bolts,

-and you and Kerry found a frog?

-Oh, yes, I remember.

Oh, no. There's a hole in my pocket, the bolts must have fallen through.

-Don't worry, Dad, that's a job for us. We'll find them!

-Good. Go-go-go!

-Come on, Kerry.

-Uh-huh.

-Oh, sorry, Mummy.

-Oh, excuse me...

'Tony and I searched the living room.'

Come on, Tony. If we don't find all the bolts,

then the twins swings won't get built.

-Here's one. I found a bolt.

-I found one too.

-There's a bolt!

-Where?

-There.

-Oh, great.

-Got it.

And look, there are two more bolts here in the hallway.

I've got two and you've got three, that makes...

one, two, three, four...

-BOTH: Five.

-..bolts.

'Kerry and I found two bolts by the back door

'and now we're searching in the grass.'

-Another bolt!

-Where?

-Can you see anything else?

-No.

-Oh, look.

-What?

-A frog.

-Where?

-A frog!

-It's a garden frog.

Try stroking it, Kerry.

-I'm scared he's going to hop off.

-He won't.

FROG CALLS

Ooh! THEY BOTH GIGGLE

-Kerry, wash your hands if you touch the frog, please.

-OK.

Do you think Mummy and Dad are awake yet?

No, I think we're the only people awake in our road!

It's so quiet, listen.

CAT MEOWS

I can hear a cat meowing.

Do you think it's Tiger Fluffy Boots?

-It might be. I hope he's not stuck up in a tree again.

-Oh, no.

-Do you remember when we had to rescue him?

-Oh, yes, I remember.

So do I.

-Wow!

-Wow.

'Even though we're worried about Tiger Fluffy Boots,

'we can't help getting excited when a fire engine comes down our road

'and pulls up on our drive.'

'One of the firemen is Carson, who is our friend Kerry's dad.

'He'll rescue Tiger.'

I see the problem. All right, lads, let's get the ladder off the truck.

All right, careful boys, careful. There you go, keep going.

That's it, yeah.

CAT MEOWS

'Grandma arrives just when Carson is up the ladder rescuing Tiger.'

-OK.

-Is that Tiger up there, Mrs Higgly-Piggly's cat?

-Yeah.

There you go.

Good boy.

Yay!

-Here he is.

-Aww.

-I'll take him.

-Oh, thanks, Carson.

-No problem.

Hello, Tiger.

Tim, I've got an idea.

What?

Let's get dressed into our school uniforms and surprise Mummy and Dad.

-Topsy, I don't want to. Please, can you go back to your own room?

-OK.

Tim, please may I take the number five balloon into my room?

Oh, OK, but look after it. We want to keep it for ever, don't we?

-Yes, our birthday party was really good.

-Yes, it was the best!

All our friends came, remember?

'There's a chair for everyone to sit on at the party table

'and lots of food.'

CHATTER

-Are you ready...

-Yes.

-..for a big surprise?

-Yes.

-Yeah.

-Oh-h-h-h.

-It's a dino-butterfly cake.

EVERYONE GIGGLES

-'There are dinosaurs and butterflies on our cake.'

-Big deep breath.

'Everyone sang and we blew out our candles.'

CHEERING

'Then we played more games...

-'and it was time for our friends to go home.'

-ALL: Hip, hip, hooray!

Tim, look, I'm getting ready for school.

'Topsy, Tim, are you out of bed?'

Oh, I thought I heard something. What are you two up to?

Topsy couldn't sleep.

I'm too excited about going to big school tomorrow.

Oh, Topsy, it's too early for you to get up and put

your new school uniform on. I think you should have another snooze

-in your own bed, with your pyjamas on, OK?

-OK, Mummy.

-Good girl.

Come on, let's take this off, there's a good girl.

What do you think our first day of school will be like, Topsy?

It will be absolutely brilliant! Night-night, Tim.

Night-night, Topsy.

'And it was good. Starting at our new school was amazing.

'When we got to the school gates, we saw lots of children.'

'Some of our friends from nursery were there.'

-Hello, Tim.

-Oh, it's Steve.

-Hello, Andy.

-Hi, Topsy!

-Hi.

-Oh, I love your school uniform.

-I love yours, too.

'We already have lots of friends at our new school.' Hi, Kerry.

Welcome, everyone. Now, once I ring this bell,

I would like you to say goodbye to whoever brought you to school today

and walk nicely into the classroom. It's time to begin your first day

-at Hatcham Primary School. Are we all ready? ALL:

-Yes!

-Yes!

BELL RINGS

-Have a lovely day.

-Be good for Miss Terry.

-We will.

-I'll miss you today, Mummy.

-Bye, Dad. Bye, Mummy.

Now listen, Dad and I will be waiting right here,

Topsy and Tim, for the end of the school day.

We want to hear all about it.

Now, go on, you go and have fun at big school,

my twintastic Topsy and twintabulous Tim.

-BOTH: We will.

-I love you, Mummy.

-I love you, Mummy. Love you, Dad.

-Love you both, too.

-Off you go, Topsy and Tim.
