Students of Overnewton College, Australia in SMKCS

On 4th July 2012, SMK Convent Sentul welcomed the students of Overnewton Anglican Community College, Australia. 15 students from the age range of 14-16 alongside with parents and teachers came to SMKCS starting from 9 am.

The mark of their arrival was when the students of SMKCS played the kompang. A picture was taken upon their arrival. Then, SMKCS students from the second formers presented the '1Malaysia' dance for the guests.

After that, the guests were taken to the APD room, where they had A Glimpse Of SMKCS from the presentation by the principal and students. A short experiement was held to show the chemical formation of YTT flower.

The prefects then guide the guests to the platform and badminton court for the next session, the traditional games. The guests were introduced to three games, batu seremban, congkak, and sepak raga(sepak takraw)

`

From the activity the guests were able to know the traditional games of Malaysia. Even though some of the games might require some skills to play with it.

At 10.30, the students of Overnewton College were taken around the school, guided by a prefect for each student, they were introduced to the school labs, discipline room, classroom and others. So, they are able to see how does the students learn in school.

All of the guests then were taken to a room, to have some treat.

There, they were served with Malaysian food such as roti canai, mihun sup, keropok lekor, kuih lapis and also some local fruits, rambutan, pulasan and mata kucing.
