Dear friends,
In September, the learning activities started to run on the 2nd week of September. Even some facilitators were still on their holiday until the 3rd week of September.
On early September, we tried to open the new location, at Muara Baru, near fish market, Sunda Kelapa Port area, Kota. In this first stage, we were still in adapting and orienting the location. We visited a family, who ever be one of our children at Cakung.
On the 3rd Saturday of September, exactly on Sept 17th, 2011, we held the 2nd quarterly learning evaluation for children from all categories.
On the same day, Julian, Gratje, and Ivonne, students from Psychology faculty of Atma Jaya University visited the learning house. They surveyed the location, be acquainted with the children, & explained their goal to make a support program as their major in education psychology for our alternative education activities.
On Sunday, Sept 18th, 2011, we attended the wedding of Ms.Tiny & his husband at her house. Most of the facilitators came. Congratulations on the wedding of Ms.Tiny & husband. May they are always happy ever after & live in harmony.
Based on the monthly evaluation program at the end of August, we planned the schedule of dental healthcare workshop on Saturday, Sept 24th, 2011. This activity was followed by the Cakung children & their parents. This could be run by our cooperation with Ciliwung Merdeka clinic, the coordinator; Ms.Yanti. She and her team and Dr.Hendro, lead the workshop. The friends of Canisius College alumna, coordinated by Mr.Andrew, helped us introducing their friend, Dr.Oscar from dentistry faculty of Trisakti University. He helped us in the workshop.
Thank you so much to the team of Ciliwung Merdeka Clinic & Dr.Hendro. Thank you so much to Oscar & Mr.Andrew & the friends of Canisius College alumna. We hope our cooperation will continue.
On Sunday, Sept 25th, 2011, we went at Muara Baru. In the second visited, we started the activity. The early focus is facilitating the mothers in life-skill activity, such as sewing & chrocheting. Some children accompanied their mothers. Unfortunately, we didn’t hold the library activity yet.
Our focus more on life-skill activity for the mothers & the library activity for their children. We were still running the activities once in two weeks & doing at the house of our pioneer, who will be the cadres there.
At the end of this month, we held the monthly program evaluation for the children coordinator of the programs. This is the time to get involved some of the 3rd category children in organizational structure. Cynthia & Intan attended. Cynthia has task to responsible in children absency & in saving activity, while Intan has support in preparing the children before learning, such as clean the learning house, help the young children in nail clipping, hand washing, & pencil sharpening before they started to learn.
On Tuesday, Sept 27th, 2011, we had donation from Canisius College Alumna for parents of Cakung making birth certificate for their children. Since their visitation a few month ago, we had plan to have a worthy activity which have long term effect for the Cakung children.

On Saturday, Sept 17th, 2011, we held the 2nd quarterly learning evaluation for Cakung children of all categories. On that day, almost all facilitators came accompanying children. Evaluation started after the children drinking milk. The participants were the children who followed the learning activity since the early year. That’s why the new children who for few times learn at learning house, didn’t have to come. The theoretical evaluation for children of the 1st category coordinated by Ms.Uwie, for children of the 2nd category by Ms.Uju, while for children of the 3rd & 4th categories coordinated by Ms.Debby & Ms.Rikah. The practical evaluation coordinated by Ms.Uju, Ms.Uwie, & Ms.Debby.
The subject of practical knowledge for children of the 1st & 2nd categories were origami & decorated the origami stick on the drawing paper, while for children of the 3rd & 4th categories were speaking about step by step how to plant corn & the progress of their plant, playing recorder from 8 basic rhythm and a song of some songs that have learned, also plaiting ketupat (leaf cover of Indonesian sticky rice for Ied Mobarak celebration). The judge of the last practical knowledge evaluation was Intan’s grandma.
Generally, children were able to finish their learning evaluation well. While the facilitators were explaining about the evaluation result, children ate the healthy menu. After that, as the support for the children, all of them have each two pencils, while three children who were in the first rank, received canvas bag.
Thank you so much for the facilitators’ support & attention. Thank you so much to Ms.Ari, Ms.Uwie, Ms.Tiny, Ms.Uju, Ms.Qori’ah, Mrs.Rikah, also Aung. Thank you so much for Intan’s grandma who support in learning plaited ketupat & became a jury in the learning evaluation.

The Children Health Development Program
On Saturday, Sept 24th, 2011, we held the workshop of dental healthcare. The participants were 42 children, 10 parents, & 4 facilitators. Not all of the children attended the workshop. It’s because of the misunderstanding about dental healthcare & children afraid of being checked by the dentist.
The workshop started in the afternoon, after children drank milk. The workshop lead by the team of RSCM and Mr.Oscar from Dentistry faculty of Trisakti University. The workshop started with introducing the team, after that begin the workshop & question session. Children were enthusiastic following the workshop.
