Class Moms

This is something you wouldn't see back home...

Once a month, the "class moms" come down to the school for "cleaning day." Teams of mothers spread out and scrub Yang Hwa Elementary till it is sparking and shining clean. In this picture the moms are standing on a small ledge to scrub and clean the windows. Somehow I just can't imagine Canadian parents being willing to get down and dirty scrubbing their children's school! I'm guessing the janitorial union doesn't quite have the muscle it does in BC schools...
