LDKS

LDKS (Latihan Dasar Kepemimpinan Siswa) is a program of SMAN 3 Bandung with the aim to increase student’s discipline and leadership through a series of trainings. It was held for three days from Thursday, September 29^th  until Saturday, October 1^st. this program is held in RINDAM III/Siliwangi, at jl. Menado.

On Thursday, all students are gathered at the hall. Then we are divided into companies and barracks. There were two companies, and  seven barracks. Then we were told to put our things in the barrack and come back to the hall. In the hall, we participate in the opening ceremony of LDKS. It was then followed by an explanation of the school rules and then a presentation about physical and psychological self-protection for men and women from P2TP2A.

When the clock strikes twelve, we proceed to pray in the mosque which was followed by lunch. In order to instill discipline to the students, there are rules that must be obeyed in the eating room. Some of the rules are 1 table consist of 8 people, we must sit upright and look straight, we must pray together before eating and a lot more other rules. After we finished eating, we then moved to the field where we do PBB (Peraturan Baris Berbaris) for hours. After that we took a bath and eat again. Next we went to the mosque to pray and the day was closed with the election of Ketua Angkatan 32019.

The next day continue in mostly the same manners with praying, eating and more presentations. But there is something interesting in the night. The lights went out so we were told to went back to the barrack early. In the barrack there were an evaluation by the seniors, after that we slept.

The last day, after the usual morning routine, we were gathered in the hall for a presentation about positive energy by an alumni of SMAN 3 Bandung. It was then followed by mindset games in the field. From there we went back for the closing ceremony. When it is finished, the LDKS is officially closed and we went back to our homes.
