June is another month with many event. We had our greatest fun in this June 2 weeks holidays.

ZongZi(粽子) is a delicious chinese sticky rice wrapped in Bamboo leaves. Pork, chiken meat or peanuts is usually putted in the rice. On this day, every class must prepare tools and ingredients required for making this food. There are techniques and few steps to make this food. We then take back our ZongZi from the school kitchen class after it is ready to be eaten.


5-20th June (Saturday) - School holiday Starts.
This June school holiday started after our school first semester last term examination finished. Teachers and students can take a break during this period.

5-9th June (Saturday) - A Family Trip from Tawau to Sandakan.
My father, sister and I left our house on the first day of our holiday. Our journey this time is for nature discovery purposes. We went up to Sandakan Town, stopping along the way to discover new things. This trip is worth for me because I discovered many new things (especially insects) along the way and with the help of two library books about insects to give me some information. We had managed to visit amazing places like caves, forests, mangrove swamp, the largest river in Sabah and ..... We had also learned how desperate the wildlife are because their habitats are destroyed for oil palm plantation. This trip is one of my best.

Goodbye Holidays, Hello School. Enough for break time, it is time for study again.
