The Children's Republic
Students run their own mini nation at school.
The Children's Republic (Republik Anak) is a nation run by students, inside the school gate. It has a president, a police department, a hospital, a post office, a radio station, a minimart and a salon, all staffed by students.
Learning by running things
Running a shop teaches money. Running a radio teaches speaking up. Running a police department teaches fairness. Students learn civics by doing it every week, with the student council and CH Radio carrying the same spirit into the upper years.
