SMANAWA's 18th anniversary



hi dear, it's not yet too late to post this. this is still august and it's still appropriate to post about smanawa's anniversary which came on august 14th, ain't it?
yeah. the celebration was held on august 15th due to august 14th was sunday.
the celebration was a little bit different with the former years, since this year's anniversary is on Ramadhan.
We used to have a hike (gerak jalan, in bahasa) around Permata Jingga area, continued with many fun games, and also gathering in the school hall with Tumpeng party. And all of them are held at noon. but not this year.

In the morning , the teachers had a competition of moving a bowlful of peanuts with.... CHOPSTICKS. so, they pick those nuts with chopsticks one by one. they had to do it quickly that the fastest would be the winner.
The students had Ketupat making competition, patrol competition and also Adzan reciting competition. Unfortunately I couldn't come cause I had classes.

In the dusk, we had a fast-breaking together in the schoolyard. it was tarted with a preach by Mr. Kamilun Muhtadin, a well-known preacher in Malang who was Smanawa's headmaster.
after the preach, when maghrib was about to come, the winner of petrol competition performed their action, they played percussion with dustbins, drums and bamboo kentongans.





continued by adzan reciting by the winner of adzan competition. sorry, no pic. We're supposed to answer every sentence of adzan, ain't we? that's why I didn't capture the muadzin.

After that, we had ta'jil (sweets as appetizer), continued with maghrib praying in Al Bannan mosque.

Well, i'm no longer smanawa's student, and I'm also not a teacher, but my teacher gave me a cup of fruit cocktail :)

after having a pray, the teachers had a dinner in their office. they asked me to join, but I was ashamed and I wasn't dare to involve in the teacher's group. Fortunately I have brought my own meal (well, the students are supposed to bring their own meals, so I decided to do the same with the students)
Here are the snapshots of the teachers' dinner
