You might feel really scared, you might feel nervous, worried, upset or you might feel excited or happy.
Whatever you are feeling, do not ignore it or shove it away. Tell yourself, ‘How I feel is how I feel and that is OK’.
To help you understand your feelings you can try writing them down in a diary or draw a picture that shows how you are feeling about going into Secondary School.
You can also talk to an older brother or sister, or parent or a trusted adult about how they felt about going into Secondary School.
