Pancasila Village in Surabaya Enhances Children’s Learning Enthusiasm through Neighborhood Council Partnership
Efforts to boost children’s enthusiasm for learning continue through programs in the city of Surabaya. One regularly held activity is “Sinau Bareng Balai RW” at the RW 3 Hall in Keputran Subdistrict.
This activity invites children to learn together in a relaxed yet educational atmosphere. The program is part of community development based on Pancasila values, specifically in the fields of education and strengthening the character of the younger generation.
In its implementation, “Sinau Bareng Balai RW” involves instructors from various backgrounds, ranging from elementary and junior high school teachers to university students who also provide learning assistance.
Furthermore, this activity also receives support from the Women and Child Protection Task Force, which plays an active role in ensuring the activities are safe and child-friendly.
Their involvement is a form of concern for children’s growth and development, both in terms of education and protection.
“We want to ensure children not only gain knowledge but also feel safe and comfortable while learning. Through this activity, we also invite parents and the community to be more concerned about children’s education in their surroundings,” it was stated.
It is hoped that the “Sinau Bareng Balai RW” activity can continue sustainably and become a positive space for children to develop their potential from an early age.
With this program, children in the RW 3 area of Keputran Subdistrict are expected to be increasingly motivated to learn and able to develop their potential optimally.
