It lies in one corner of the kindergarten playground in my school, wedged somewhere between the monkey-pole, the merry-go-round and the hedges. It must have seen generations of schoolgirls walk in and pass out of the school, playing games, sharing secrets, growing up. Sometimes constants do bring such a comforting feeling.
