The kids are enjoying the snake or ladder? Guess!
"Please stop pulling my ponytail!!", said the girl in white blouse.
"1, 2, 3, I'm counting. Stop starring, you're making me nervous."
"Well, I'm just checking that you're not cheating!"
We have this monthly program at ABC Elementary School so called Students Day. We have it on every first Saturday of each month. What we normally have is something non-academic such as making some handy craft and having a go on batik or jumputan.
Last Saturday it was kind of an unusual theme we chose-games. We made it a bit like a class meeting where one class should compete against others. The sixth grade competed against the fifth on volley ball. The fourth grade competed against the third on badminton. While the second and the first grade played some traditional games such as dakon,krupukan, bekel, monopoly and snake and ladder-though the last two games appear to be not our (Indonesian) traditional games.
This is how we, ABC Elementary School contributes to preserving Indonesian tradition. And by the way, is there any better way to preserve one’s culture and tradition than to introduce them to young generation?
Love being a part of the most unique and various tradition! xoxoxo
