Like last year, SD Cibeureum has two weeks holiday this end of year. After the students
received their progress reports, they started holiday and they came back to school on 2nd of
January 2018. People in Cibening village very seldom celebrate the New Year (AD), they just
watch TV to see the celebration, the fireworks and firecrackers as the year is already changed.
They celebrate the Islamic New Year with big celebration.
During the holiday, students usually spent their time at home, at the rice field or garden to help
their parents. They play with their friends at school yard or visit their friends in other village.
December and January rain falls almost every day, children like playing football under the rain,
sometimes they look after the frogs or collecting the fruit on the ground.
SD Cibeureum’s students are very lucky, they received many books from Goldteak before the
holiday. When they played at the school yard, some of them sit at the porch and read books.
Children spent their time for something fun, creative and knowledgeable during the holiday, they
will be exited to start the New Year 2018.
