The guests arrived on schedule and our welcoming party greeted them right at the gate.
The banner was hung from the top of our gate to welcome the guests. Their photographs looked older than the original. They laughed when they saw the banner.
A jasmine garland is presented to our special guests. The chief of OSIS (Students' Leadership Organization) Ade Surachman welcomed Ibu Robyn with a garland made from jasmine buds.

The students performed a welcoming dance. The dance is a traditional dance from West Java; we usually present this dance to special guests or perform it for special event. This dance is not in our curriculum, but it is an after school activity (extracurricular). The dancers were wearing traditional costumes, not our school uniform.
Ibu Robyn and Ibu Andi (this is what they would be called in Indonesia) were walking slowly, surrounded by the dancers. On Ibu Robyn's right is Mr. Ibni Affan, our English teacher. He was responsible for organising the program for the guests.
I'm the one who designed the welcoming banner. I thought that I had taken the wrong pictures of them. They are much prettier than the pictures that I downloaded of them before.
Pak Yudaha thank you for your report. Pls tell also their activities in the classroom as well as at seminar. I am back in Melbourne now and willing to know their activities.
