There are some who teachers who are mocked, others who are complimented. But our tasks do not just include teaching them, but accepting them as though they are our children.

“All teachers are like this. From the second they walk into the school, we feel proud because this is everything to them. Therefore, this is the tale of us in the outskirts. We don’t dance, we don’t jump around. We do what is necessary.”

Kebersihan sangat perlu.Aku cuma kongsi kisah guru-guru yang bukan semua orang tahu. Ada yang mengeji ada yang memuji.Namun tugas kami bukan sekadar mendidik tetapi menyantuni mereka seperti anak kami sendiri.Semua guru begini.Saat mereka hadir ke sekolah, itupun kami sudah rasa berbangga kerana di sinilah segalanya untuk mereka.Maka inilah kisah kami di belantara.Kami tidak berjoget.Kami tidak terkinja kinja.Kami hanya melakukan apa yang perlu.Begitulah. #cikgutiktok #gurupedalaman #sekolahpedalaman #muridorangasli #orangaslitemiar #cikgusekolah #sekolahkurumahku #amanahkami
