Muhammadiyah Elementary School Kertonatan

SEA Teacher students had the distinct honor of being special guests at Muhammadiyah Elementary School Kertonatan. On November 15, 2023, we enjoyed a dinner hosted by Dr. Ratih, where the Head Master of the school was also present. During this gathering, we were graciously extended an invitation to visit their humble elementary school and the associated pre-school, Aisyiyah.

Subsequently, on November 16, 2023, the Head Master kindly chauffeured us from our dorm to their school and back, offering not only transportation but also hosting a brunch for us. The day's activities included a tour of the school grounds, during which we marveled at the school's settings. Following the tour, we had the opportunity to deliver speeches in front of the students and teachers. In my opening statement, I expressed, "I stand before the future of this school and the entire Indonesia." Meeting these young minds and future leaders and professionals was truly an amazing experience.

Adding to the joy of the day was the heartwarming tradition of "salim-salim," where every student extended their hands to us as a gesture of respect and warm welcome. It was a fulfilling and memorable day, contributing to our enriching experience as SEA Teacher participants.
