Road To AIBEP Schools in Bali - Part Two
Kang Guru Indonesia basically is a project board funded by the Australian Government and the funding administered by Indonesia Australia Language Foundation (I/A/L/F) based in Denpasar Bali. Kang Guru Indonesia headed now by Mr. Kevin Dalton, and he ran some programs on behalf of Kang Guru Indonesia as the implementation of Indonesia Australia Partnership(AIP) schemes.
Those 7 Kang Guru Indonesia Champions are Saptari Wibowo (Medan), Keyko Sri Rayahu (Semarang), Ririn Pudya (Jakarta), Fadel (Lombok. NTB), Syahrir Badulu (Makasar), Suryadi Ningrat (Madura), and the last one is me myself, Asep Haryono (Pontianak).
Those seven young people who contributed and assisted KangGuru Indonesia to spread its program and promoting KangGURU programs across Indonesia. The Kang Guru Indonesia Champions themselves is not a position for money, and we never receive salary or money in return.
During the last 5th to 9th of October 2010, all Kang Guru Indonesia Champions gathered in Bali to visit some AIBEP Schools in Bali. The AIBEP here stands for the "Australia Indonesia Basic Education Program" funded by the Australian Government. The first school we have visited is SMP Negeri 4 Bebandem , and today our next stories are about a school trip to SMP Negeri 6 Amlapura located in Karangasem. Here is the story :
Having finished our first visit at SMP Negeri 4 Bebandem , now the Kang Guru Indonesia team continuing the journey to the next school, SMP Negeri 6 Amlapura located in Karangasem around one and half hour driving from the first school.
We are still four people in the car, me myself, Ayu Kusumastuti (Media Coordinator KG), Mahendra (Cameraman), Lusman (Driver), Syahrir Badulu (Champion Makasar) and Ririn Pudya (Champion Jakarta).
The Kang Guru Indonesia team received the principal of SMP Negeri 6 Amlapura, BapakI Ketutr ega in his office room at the school. Having chat with him and a few staff for several minutes, Ayu introduced us to him one by one, and he did the same way too.
One of his staff offering the Kang Guru Indonesia team some food and drink too. The staff brought some Teh Botol Sosro and some simple and cool snacks. We did not recognize the food yet, but we knew this kind of food very little. Syahrir said the food looks like popcorn, and the taste is really corn I am afraid.
I have taken a photo of the food at below. Well, you my readers, will probably recognize this kind of food. What is the name of the food we ate during the meeting?. It something like "popcorn" or "corn flakes" or what?. I tasted a little bit and showed my face to the principle as if I enjoyed the food. As a matter of fact, I was not comfortable with the taste of the food. No sugar? I love the sugar so much
Unfortunately, I have forgotten to take some photos around the school, and I did not take any single photo of SMP Negeri 6 Amlapura either so Will not be able to show you more details about the school. I have searched the whole internet to get some photos of the school, and I did not find any. I think I must contact again to anyone or any friend of mine who knew about the school

As you can see the image at below, you can get a conclusion by your own, the school has been established and funded by the Australian Government under the small block grant schemes in 2008 at the sum of Rp.1.299.577.000,- ( One Billion Two Hundred and Nineteen Nine Million Five Hundred And Seventy-Seven Thousand rupiahs).
All schools we have visited before, SMP Negeri 4 Bebandem , do not the exact address, and the Kang Guru Indonesia team got the same problem in finding SMP Negeri 6 Amlapura too. Our car running over hills and rivers driving down the road with a much windy street through the rice fields.
Having chat with the principle of SMP Negeri 6 Amlapura in his room, it is now the time for Kang Guru Indonesia in "action" for class activities by entering some classes at the school. We walked through the narrow path the school and many students there yelling, screaming Kang Guru Indonesia and cheering each other.
One of the English teachers of the SMP Negeri 6 Amlapura contacted the student coordinator to invite all students that day to the class where we are waiting for. Not more than 10 minutes, the class was full of students get together and ready to watch our actions. The first presentation came from Ayu Kusumastuti, a media coordinator of Kang Guru Indonesia Denpasar Bali.
"Okay children how are you today?" said Ayu starting her presentation to the whole class. All students in the class answered together "fineeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" wow so long answer. While Mahendra , the cameraman, quite busy recording his action, Ayu start presenting the importance of learning English to the whole students in the class.
Some of the students looking at our "action" out of the class, and the students looking through the window. The teachers were also among those students. I have recorded a short video during our presentation at the class at this posting. The video using a small pocket digital camera, Nikon Coolpix L19, the result can be seen at below :
This is a short video taken by me, The video clearly showed Ayu in "action" during her presentations to the whole students of SMP Negeri 6 Amlapura Bali. You can see the real situations through this short clip. Enjoy ya. Video taken by Asep Haryono
I forgot the name of this student, but she performed a Balinese dancing which very attractive and interesting however the dancing cannot be accompanied by the dance cassette, but she did very smoothly and look very professional like a professional dancer. One of the local teachers told us that the student was really a Balinese Dancer. "Yes she was a really Balinese dancer and also a student of our school," said one of the English teachers.
At the end of the whole presentation, we once again told to the whole class to study fun and relax with English, and recommend the Bulletin for getting the information about Kang Guru Indonesia. We do hope they can improve their spirit to learn more about English and also become a friend and partner of Kang Guru Indonesia in the future.
We recommended the school to stay in touch with the Kang Guru Indonesia for further assistance and help. We gather together outside of the principle's room and took some photos together. I took some photos during our way to the car down below. I saw some students breaking up and spreading the other class after attending our presentation. Just take a look at the photos below:
The principle of the SMP Negeri 6 Amlapura expressed his gratitude for our visit and presentation. On behalf of Kang Guru Indonesia Denpasar, Ayu also presented a gift and SMP packages to the school through the principle. We do hope the SMP Packages (including student and teacher guide books, cassettes, and CDs) will be useful to enrich the eagerness of the students of the school to learn English.

We are packing the bags, books, and everything with us again and ready to return to Kang Guru Indonesia in Denpasar, Bali. The journey will take two and a half-hour ride from this school to Jalan Sesetan Denpasar, Kang Guru headquarters.
