"It was great", "it was brilliant"... The children are unanimous, this return to school has given them a smile!

If some of them were anxious for this return to the classroom, ultimately, more fear than harm.

In primary or college, September 1st was a good day for students.

New kits, new schoolbags, big smiles or anxious looks: it was back to school for 12 million children and teenagers on September 1st.

This year, no mask on the horizon.

Schoolchildren, college students, and high school students were therefore able to discover the faces of their new classmates and their teachers.

In Strasbourg, the bell has not yet rung when the students rush out of the gates to throw themselves into the arms of their parents.

"It was very good!" Can we hear in the crowd of new schoolchildren.

A visibly successful first day, especially for Paul who has just joined CP.

This morning, however, it didn't start so well, confides his father to the microphone of Europe 1: "This little boy was in tears this morning, the teacher had to take him from his mother!"

Finally, all's well that ends well, "this evening he is in great shape and very happy".

“She was very happy to go back to school”

"It was great !"

The kids apparently loved coming back to school and reuniting with their friends.

Louise, she returned to CE2 this year.

“We did little exercises to see if we knew how to do everything again after the holidays,” she explains.

"It was great to see my friends again, it's cool!"

Her mother was not very worried when she brought Louise to school this morning: "She was very happy to go back to school".

Others have changed establishments and joined the big leagues.

Louis and Rayan are now in sixth grade, but they are very happy to be back in front of their old school.

"I came to find my old friends because there are some who have repeated and I miss them a little. It's weird to come back here because it brings back memories! Going back to college, it changes a lot", confess the two teenagers.

They still had a good day: a treasure hunt was organized in their new college.
