The Teachers' Day Celebration for Johor Bahru district level was held on Saturday, 26th May at Pusat Islam
and I was one of the school's representatives who had to be there.
(Someone had to do it.) Registration and breakfast took place between
7:30 and 8:30 a.m.

The
hall was not filled to its maximum capacity maybe because of the wrong
timing. The school holidays had already started and some people were
already somewhere else. Luckily I met some people I knew and managed to
sit beside a colleague.

| the performance |
The
ceremony was started off with a performance which was a combination of
poetry recitation cum pantomime with singing and the music of violin and
flute in the background. It was very dramatic indeed which was a
typical Malay presentation kind of thing.

| the entertaining choir group |
There
was also a choir performance which was more modern and very
entertaining - I think they deserved a standing ovation. But then it
would be only me clapping hard and shouting "Encore! Encore!" (Of course
I exaggerated.) They should have more performance by teachers to
attract more people to attend this ceremony.

reading the oath, again,
with Mr. Sa'at by my side |
After
the routine of prayer recitation, speeches (Thank God they were quite
short), reading of the teachers' oath (I read twice this year) and the
singing of "Guru Malaysia" song, the event was continued with awards and
certificates presentation.

The
whole thing ended quite early and we were all rushing back home by
10:15 a.m. The event was quite short I did not have the chance to doze
off. We could have gone back earlier if only the VIP arrived on time but
it was alright this time so I am not going to complain much. I hope
there is no Teachers' Day celebration for me to attend anymore this year.
