Water Canon Celebration Of My Daughter In School

My daughter's school celebrate the graduation with water canon party. All students gather in the school yard. Then, the operator play a musical instrument. All children will start to cheer when the water canon is sprayed on them.

It is a new simple party for students. The party does not last for long time. It is about 30 minutes but the preparation takes more time. The students make formation. The photographer took photos with a camera and a drone.

The students wear the school uniform. They stand up and make formation. The school principle gives speech before the party.

There are about 200 students who graduate this year. They will go to senior school. The school years in junior school are three years. The next term is also three years of study in senior school.

All children should finish 12 years of study. After senior school, a student will be 18 or 19 years old.

After 18 or 19 years old, a child will go to work or go to university. Most children will go to work. The latest data, there only 6 % young children who go to university.

Going to university is expensive today in Indonesia. The government increases tuition fees. This decision burdens the middle and poor community groups. There is liberalization and commercialization of education. However, council members and people's representatives in political parties do not seem to have the power to criticize the government. This situation makes people disappointed.

We hope that the new government will make different decisions that prioritize the people rather than international agreements that make education a business commodity.

Good luck my daughter. Your journey does not end here. You should go and get your dream!
