Boots clasped in her hands, was a young girl called Luningning who was
also from the Philippines! ‘Come over here and sit next to me!’ exclaimed
Luningning, who was just as surprised as Dalisay.

The two girls became instant friends as Luningning explained all about the
story of Puss in Boots and how they learned to improve their English with
Mrs Mahmood who was the best teacher in the whole wide world.

That afternoon, Dalisay talked to each and every one of the children in the
class, and although she did not always understand what they were saying,
she knew one thing for sure: all of the children had come to England to start
a new life, and even though it was sometimes scary to be in a new place
where you did not speak the language, there would always be somebody
around who would help. And no matter where you went in the world, you
would always find a friend. Dalisay realized then that she would never be
alone. England was her new home and she was going to make the best of
it no matter what.
