Student Teachers Teach about Resilience and Faith in Bicak

In the aftermath of the earthquake, some are finding solace in their faith. In many ways, this has fostered a sense of resilience and community spirit.

While the Children’s Centre is used for all sorts of activities, when a few days ago, six student teachers came from Yogyakarta to teach Arabic, the children of Bicak were enthusiastic.

They are keen to learn to read and write Arabic so that they may gain a deeper understanding of the teachings of the Qur'an.

Of course, they also learnt to sing a number of catchy songs, and there was time to play games as well.
