A Day Without Electricity.

So today there was no electricity supply in a small part of Taman Teluk Intan and it just so happens that our school is in that part as well.

Early in the morning, teachers have all been standing in front of the school due to a few reasons:
1. To escape the heat inside the building because the fan and air-cond couldn't be turned on
2. To look after the kids who were sitting outside because they want to escape the heat as well (well it was hotter for most of them because most of them were playing and jumping around and SWEATING)

No classes can be conducted in the building because it was so dark and so hot.

So the children gathered at the two porches (Level 1 kids in one porch and Level 2 & 3 kids in another porch)

The principal sang songs with the Level 1 children in the morning and they were having so much fun.

Then, it was recess time.

Then, it was lesson time after recess. The teachers decided to make it more interesting for the kids. There were story-telling sessions, singing sessions and many more.

There is also a video showing the kids during lessons outside the school building.
