Timezone's "Family Day"

                      Timezone’s “Family Day”

Timezone, a recreation game center from Australia, which is already famous in Indonesia, cares with every kid’s needs in education. Family Day is a competition event held by Timezone which is classified for children from PAUD to kindergarten only. This event was usually held once a month.

Last week, Timezone at Duta Pertiwi Center Semarang held an event named “Family Day” for an education competition. This competition was held in Timezone Duta Pertiwi Mall center, especially on Friday. Timezone invited one of the schools in East Semarang to join this event. The children with their teachers went there and joined the event. Family Day had some series of events for the children. They joined a geometry competition, drawing and play dough events.

The Manager of Duta Pertiwi’s Timezone, Mr. Bangun believes that this event is not only to regain the interest of people in visiting Timezone especially the children. He hopes that this event can also make the children learn too about how to compete well and how to learn through games. As for the children, they can enjoy some educational activities too with all Timezone’s staffs. The Timezone’s staff worked together to prepare what the student’s need in doing the competition. Mr. Bangun, as a manager, took part in decorating and providing some facilities for them too. For Timezone, this activity took an important role not only in regeneration of customers, but in ensuring the educational purposes for the students in Indonesia (in this context, is mainly focus in Central Java.) The students looked very enthusiast in taking a part in this competition. Also, there will be a reward for those won the competition. While waiting for the announcement of the winner, the student could enjoy some games in Timezone. Timezone also provided bonuses for the students there so they could enjoy some free games there. After announcing the winner, the students who won the competition stepped forward into the podium and received the trophy and prize reward. The students looked all happy there as they played together too with Timezone’s staffs. Mr. Juna as one of the staff in Timezone, who led the children play, was also really happy to see the students’ smile.

For the teachers, they felt happy with their students because they could learn and join some competitions there. Mr. Bangun couldn’t feel happier than making the students become more clever than usual through this competition. “I hope that the students could be a great generation in the future.”
