When George was a kid, he did some community service because he wanted to help people. George started a tuna and cucumber sandwich shop that, with the help of donations from grown-ups, gave tuna and cucumber sandwiches to the needy for free. George always took a hands-on approach when calling the shots in the shop because he wanted some real world experience in leadership. Also, George was the shop manager because he was the best at making tuna and cucumber sandwiches in the world.

This podcast is quite special. Thank you ❤ Certainly students at this private school can gain much hands-on experience when they do community work.

In my opinion the Bamboo School is extremely important. Kids are being taught to think outside the box, and to do community service - something primordial nowadays. Keep up the great work.

Hello

@aselim20. Ай бұрын

I learned that some kids call the shots. Children hands with the management of the school. They have real-world experience. Grown-ups check the kids. The school is free but students have to do community service which is planting 400 trees a year.

Every school should be like this school because this school actually teaching students what not only book can teach, this school making them prepared for good human being

@salmaalamin5972 Ай бұрын

I think even students there can appreciate more the importance of education as they pay their own efforts and experience to get educated ..I admire the school’s idea 🔥👍

In my opinion, kids in bamboo school are like volunteers, from cooking shopping to teaching, they do everything they can and plant trees is beneficial for environment
