We all know that English includes one of the
most spoken languages in the world and brings many benefits in the future.
Based on this fact, English Competition Days (ECD) 2015 invites the young generation especially senior
high school students to learn, love, and live English through the series of
interesting english-based competition. For this year’s implementation, ECD is
followed by many students from many schools in Central Java and provides 7 competitions
which are speech, storytelling, news casting, drama, spelling bee, debate, and
yel-yel. To make everything become more perfect, the committee also sets up a
photo booth for those who want to perpetuate the togetherness. This clearly
makes ECD to be more exciting and different from the previous ones.
During
the event, participants’ enthusiasm is very high. Many of them look busy to
make new friends from other schools, to take many photos in the photo booth, to
prepare themselves before the competition started.
“I am
glad to join such kind of competition. All the committees are
friendly, the event is also interesting. It seems like I want to join ECD again
next year!” said Filbert Hanjaya from SMA YSKI Semarang.
The same
thing is also delivered by Kevin Mulyono from SMA Kristen 1 Salatiga, “Joining
ECD makes me get many new friends. Everything seems well prepared, and by the
way I like the food. It tastes good.”
Indeed,
ECD 2015 will not run successfully without the efforts from the committee in
the last three months. Laura Surjantoro alone, as the chairperson of ECD 2015,
admits that all the committee really work hard to give their best. They help
and tolerate each other.
“I’m amazed of ECD 2015. I can feel the
enthusiasm of participants and love among committee
and LO.” Said Laura.
