FINDINGS

Early of Ramadhan Holidays

Almost all the students in Indonesia have the early of Ramadhan Holidays - even the Non-Moslems. Based on the interview, one of them has a three-day holiday and the rest have a two-day holiday.

Learning Duration

During Ramadhan, the school starts later and ends earlier. Ica said that if normally the school starts at 07.00 - 14.15, in Ramadhan it will be 07.30 - 12.00. Resa said that if normally the school starts at 06.30 - 15.15, in Ramadhan it will be 06.30 - 13.30. And Faris said that if normally the school starts at 07.30 - 15.00, in Ramadhan it will be 07.30-13.00

Uniforms

In Labsky, during the Ramadhan the students wear Moslem clothing. But two of them (who study at public schools) wear their ordinary High School uniform. Faris, who study at Islamic school, wear his ordinary school uniform because it's already designed as a Moslem clothing.

School Activities

Most of the schools in Indonesia present the same activity during the Ramadhan : Pesantren Kilat. Ica said that all grades in her school are the participants. Resa said that only the 10th grader who participates the event. Faris said that only the 9th grader who doesn't participate the event.

CONCLUSION

We can conclude that there are some differences between going to school on normal days and on Ramadhan. Although we go to different schools, there are still some similarity on the activities, holidays, and learning duration.
