The students in our school were so enthusiastic. They were celebrating The World Food Day.
In our school, The World Food Day is celebrated to heighten public awareness of the problem of hunger in the world and strengthen the solidarity for the people who cannot have food as we have.
On that day, the students had a competition of arranging and decorating traditional food from Indonesia. Then they would have lunch together in their own class. Every class had to prepare a kind of traditional food to be eaten together. I walked around, from one class to another, and was glad to see the students preparing the food on the table. They had changed the studying tables into dining tables and they had arranged the food nicely.
Five students of one class were doing the final preparation. They were arranging the Balinese food completed with certain ornaments about Bali. It was very nice. A few minutes later, they finished. Then, they invited their classmates to come into the classroom. No need to take a long time, they prayed together and started eating. Meanwhile, their homeroom teacher was outside the classroom, having a talk with another teacher. The students focused on their lunch and their togetherness. They didn't care about other people around them. After some time having a talk, the homeroom teacher went away, not coming into the classroom.
On the way he was going, some students from another class offered him to have lunch with them.
Sometimes, some work and some fail.
Some classes reached the goal, some classes failed.
Some classes succeeded to strengthen the solidarity for people around them, while some classes failed.
Some classes remembered people around them when they had got food to eat, while some classes focus on the food for themselves.
For you who have succeeded, congratulations! Keep giving more, taking less. I'm proud of you.
