Your first day at school marks the beginning of a new phase of life, where you will now face new duties, responsibilities, and the need to make decisions. Yesterday you were just Anton; now you’re a Year 1 pupil. In a classic suit with a tie featuring a national pattern. You are a Ukrainian schoolboy. Relatives will gather, take photos, and tell you not to fidget – some might even call you a weirdo. Yet just this morning, before breakfast, you were simply playing in your room, and that was perfectly normal. Now, in the space of a single day, you have to leap in time. A single day in which new social roles are thrust upon you.
