There are some elementary schools in Sumbawa village. Had we arrived earlier in the morning, around 7:30, we would see the children in their red and white uniform walking together to the school.. Like anywhere else in the world, as they get into the small, simple schoolyard they start playing, catching a quick game of impromptu football, joking, teasing and yelling. School is over for the day by 12:30. However, because the numbers of schools children exceed the school's capacity, teachers must hold 2 complete sessions of school each day: morning and late afternoon. Primary and secondary school is technically free in Indonesia, although there are many ' hidden' costs such as uniform, school books, monthly school administration fees etc. that can make it difficult for some families to put their children through school, especially in a time of economic crisis, like now. Junior High School children wear in a white and dark blue uniform and leave for their school early at 6:30 by public mini truck.
