Racial Harmony Day

Dear Madam Siti, thank you for organizing such a wonderful Racial Harmony Day for us. I felt very happy because we had an hour recess and we tried many traditional games, food and costumes. During the one hour recess, I felt happiest because I didn't need to rush even though I went to the library and played many interesting games. There were some different stalls that sold delicious food. For example: Ice Kachang Ball, Roti Prata, Cotton Candy, Satay and many more. Then I played various types of games. After recess, we went to the hall to assemble for the show titled ''The Importance of Being Kay-Po.'' The show was so funny that we couldn't stop laughing. The last activity of the day was to make a Bunga Managua. First, the teacher gave us one long stick and a streamer. Next, she showed us how to make the Bunga Managua. At first, I found it very hard to do. However, when I did the second one, I found it easier. After a few hours, when all the streamers and sticks were used up, our teacher told us to sit on the floor. After we settled down, she told us what we were going to do next. It was after then we began to get restless again, after a while, she managed to clam us down. For the last step to complete the Bunga Managua, we had to take off our shoes while she put a chair in front of the Bunga Managua. One by one we took turns to pierce the sticks that we made in the Styrofoams. When we finished, the ''dull'' Bunga Managua became very colourful and attractive. Even though I was very exhausted I enjoyed myself very much.
