It was Jamie’s first day back at school after his 

long stay in the hospital. Jamie had been very 

sick. The doctors all agreed that he would now 

benefit from using a wheelchair. So Jamie's  

parents bought him a cool new wheelchair.

All of Jamie’s friends were really excited that 

he was coming back to school. They could not 

wait to see his new wheelchair. Jamie was

nervous and worried about how he was going 

to cope and how his friends would react when 

they saw him in a wheelchair for the first 

time. 

On Jamie’s way to class, he was thinking

 about how he would be able to play with his

friends at lunchtime. No one had ever had a

wheelchair in his class before. All of Jamie’s 

friends were so happy to see him when he got

to class. They all rushed around him and gave

him big hugs, smiles and high 5’s. 

It was almost lunchtime and Jamie was really 

worried. He couldn't help wondering if his  

friends would leave him out of their games.

How was his wheelchair going to go on the  

playground? Would he ever be able to play in 

the sand pit or on the monkey bars again?

After eating their lunch, Liam and Zac

wheeled Jamie out onto the oval to play ball.

They came up with a game of throwing and

 catching. Jamie had so much fun throwing

 the ball. He really liked this game and felt 

very   happy. 

The next day at the start of lunch, Jamie was 

still worried. What if they wanted to play 

something that he couldn't? But before he 

could think about it again, Sarah and Emma 

asked him to be the judge of their handstand 

competition. Jamie was a GREAT judge! He

 also had a lot of fun and felt very important. 

By Wednesday, Jamie was looking forward to seeing 

what new game he would play at lunchtime. That day, 

Jamie wanted to play with all of his friends. He came 

up with a FABULOUS idea! Jamie got everyone to sit 

down in a chair and together they played musical 

statues. The rules were that they could only move 

their arms and head.
