For most children, their first day back to school is an exciting time, but for this boy in China, he is ecstatic to finally get back to school.
Gao Zhiyu has been out of school for four years after being hit by a car during the summer break, reports the People's Daily Online.
His father made Gao 'new legs' from wood allowing him to rejoin his class today in Jimo City, eastern China.
The 11-year-old student began a new year at Chengnan Elementary School in Jimo City, China's Shandong province today.
Gao lost his legs in a car accident during the summer break in 2012.
During his long stay in hospital, he kept up with work, using his spare time to study.
His father also created new legs for him out of wood.
According to the school, Gao's hard work means he now ranks in the top 5 percent of his class.
People have been discussing the boy's story on social media site Weibo with people saying that Gao is inspirational. While others shared their concern over the boy's legs.
One user wrote: 'Such a view. We have no reason not to work hard.'
While another commented: 'He looks so tired. Could they not fit artificial limbs or use a wheelchair?'
And one user said: 'An inspirational and extraordinary person.'
