Life at Shindang

This is the cafeteria. It's so nice and clean, but it's always freezing. The teachers' tables are near the door too, so cold wind comes in every time a kid goes out to play after they eat.

Lining up for food. Yes, teachers line up too! However, we usually butt in front if there is a long line.

This is how a typical lunch looks like. There is always soup, rice, 2 sides, and a meat dish. There were churros that day. It was yummy, but it was only the 1st time that they served that in the 6 months I've been here. Some days, lunch just sucks.

This is the entrance. Christmas tree is still up. You can see the tree is taller than the ceiling, because the top is cut off.

Our school is only about 3 or 4 years old. It is really clean. Also, because it's new, we have an elevator. Not many schools have that. I'm thankful because there are 6 floors in my school.

I teach grades 1-6 and each grade is divided into 3 sections. There are about 90 students per grade, so since they are divided, I teach about 30 students at a time. This is Grade 6-3, my favorite of the 6th graders. This was the day before graduation and I went in their classroom just to chill and take some pictures. They decided that they wanted to play me a song on their recorders. Can you tell which song this is?
