"There are a total of 128 new students at this school, divided into four classes. They are very enthusiastic about participating in the MPLS," she said, Monday (7/13).

On the first day of MPLS, she explained, the school focused the material on introducing the school environment so that students feel comfortable and adapt more quickly.

MPLS activities are packaged in a fun way through various educational games, such as ball games, catching balls, singing, and various variations of enthusiastic applause.

"We want children to enjoy their first day of school in a fun atmosphere so they are more confident in learning," she explained.

Nuryati hopes that there will be good synergy between schools and parents in supporting various educational programs, such as character building, habituation of worship, introduction to the school environment, and waste sorting programs.

Meanwhile, one of the parents, Kurnia (35) admitted that he deliberately accompanied his child because it is his first time as an elementary school student.

"My child remains enthusiastic and eager to participate in MPLS activities. Since last night, he has been impatient to go to school," he admitted.
