A Good Child

A Good Child

This song teaches students the virtues of being a good child. The song is sung by students from Primary 1/1 at Sriwittayapaknam School.

Here is a rough translation:

There are ten virtues and characteristics of being a good child:

  1. Faith in a religion.
  2. Preservation of the culture and tradition.
  3. Respect of parents and teachers.
  4. Polite and proper during conversations.
  5. Grateful for what you have.
  6. A person who loves to work.
  7. Study well, try hard and never be lazy.
  8. Know how to save money.
  9. Must always be honest, kind and brave.
  10. Help other people, understand the difference between right and wrong and help the country to flourish.
