“We try to make the children independent, so they don’t experience trauma from the earthquake,” said Teh Ummy,
The Trauma Healing activity was continued with singing together, sharing stories, and correspondence from SD Al Amanah to children who were victims of the earthquake. Children get emotional support. So that it can foster a sense of sharing, gratitude and mutual affection under any circumstances.
