James and the Giant Peach

James and the Giant Peach On February 2, 2019, We were asked to go to the SM Seaside to witness the role play of the preschoolers from our school, the story is called "James and the Giant Peach." the story is all about James, a young boy who is orphaned when his parents are eaten by a rhinoceros. James is consequently sent to live with his two aunts, Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker. These relatives are very cruel to him, and he is incredibly lonely, since he has no friends yet longs to play with children his own age. But on one particularly hard day, James's luck changes: an Old Man appears in the backyard garden and offers James a packet of magical green objects.

It was really fun and we got the chance to learn from cleaning the canteen, and got the chance to exercise our bodies during the process, I couldn't believe how dirty the canteen was, there was garbage all over the place and a lot of dust on the tables, but people don't really care about the garbage that's on the floor.

When we finished cleaning the canteen we then went to clean our classroom because our principal told everyo
