Answer:

The children arrived first for the lottery.

An irony is a literary device and figure of speech in which words give a direct opposite meaning from the intended meaning.

From the excerpt, we see that the main theme was referring to "school". Therefore, children couldn't be first for the lottery, which is ironic.
