Hello fellas! I know its been a while since we posted something here and we sincerely apologize for it. This is our newest project, our own school prospectus! We put a lot of effort into it so i hope y'all will appreciate it.

 We had to research about our own school in the website and then make it into a brochure shaped prospectus. I had some help too from others. Overall it was a fun activity. -Bastian

There are two prospectuses each made by a different group. This time the groups are different than the usual ones. The one below is the prospectus Bastian and I, along with 2 members from the other group, Vianca and Robin, created. Everyone had their own jobs and we also helped each other in contributing to the making of the prospectus, such as writing the contents, editing, etc. -Tamara

School Break

On December 12, 2015, we had started our annual semester break; it ended on January 5, 2016. We had a 3-week break. This time, I spent most of the time staying at home.

At home, I did not have many things to do, and it was just the usual things I do daily. Besides that I also read books, watched TV shows or videos, played games, and etc. to keep myself from boredom.

I did not go outside my house often during the break. I went outside occasionally to go cycling for a while, have dinner in a restaurant with my family, go to the movies, and go to my mother’s office to help out some stuff. Some of the movies I watched during the break were “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2”, “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, and “Ip Man 3”. I also went to my friend’s house to hangout. The only time I went outside Jakarta was when I visited my grandmother in Bogor, and I did not stay there.

I spent my New Year and New Year’s Eve at home with my neighbors and my childhood friends. They went to my house to hangout, and we spent it by playing board games such as Monopoly and just talked until around 2 am in the living room. Aside from us the others were asleep, and we might have disturbed them since we were so loud.

Although my holiday was not that exciting, I still enjoyed it. I hoped the break was longer but, as a ninth grader, we have to go to school and study for the soon-to-be-faced exams.

Hell-O-Spook

                On October 30, 2015, we celebrated our very first Halloween in school. It was called “Hell-O-Spook”. On that day we had several activities.

                Several days before the event, each section decorated its classroom for the best decorated classroom competition. Each class decided on its own unique theme. On the day of the event, everyone arrived in school in his/her Halloween costume. It was spectacular because all dressed up according to their class’ theme. In the morning of the event, there were evaluators who went to each class to judge the best decorated class. While the evaluation was going on, the grade 9 students were kept busy by the preparation of their food and drinks kiosks, their business studies project. However, the other grades studied as usual. It was successful because the lower grades and the teachers supported the grade 9 students by buying their products.

                After our religious service, all of us gathered in the lobby, after that we went to the lecture room, where the Halloween party was held. At the party, there were games, awarding ceremony, and talent show. Each class had its own representatives for the talent show. For the talent show they had to show their talents, such as singing or playing musical instruments. Awards had been given to the section which had the best decorated classroom, to the student who had the best costume, who showed the best talent, and etc.
