Gotong-royong by the English Language Society

Last Saturday, the members of the English Language Society held gotong-royong at our school.
The aim of the project was to clean up the school compound. The gotong-royong began at 7.30 in the
morning.
The Form five students cleared up the rubbish left around in the school compound. While, other
students set to work, clearing and washing the drains.
Two of the English Language Society members had brought lawn mowers and began mowing
the grass on the school field. The form one students set to work on the gardens, weeding and trimming
the bushes and also clearing away all dead leaves and branches.
Next, the form three students washed the dusty window of the classrooms, staffroom, library
and the science laboratories. A few students decided to do something about the school gate that had
the peeling paint and was beginning to rust in some places. They scraped away the old paint and gave
the new gate a new coat of black paint.
By the time the gotong-royong ended, some of the society members were worn out but the
school was spick and span. We gathered at the school canteen for the delicious refreshments provided
by the teachers. We were happy that our school looks nice and clean again and we promised will always
take a good care of our beloved school.
