They were in the middle of a class, but curious kids ran out of the classroom

Climbing up the mountain road, I arrived at a small mountain village. As I proceeded through the grounds of a school built within the village, I could hear the voices of children. I thought that a lively class was in session, but it was not. The children noticed the sudden visitor and came running out of their classrooms. Noticing the arrival of a foreigner they did not normally see, they ran out of the classroom without regard for the class.

The children were curious about the foreigners. It is not a tourist spot, and there are probably not many foreigners in this remote village deep in the mountains. The children who came out of the classroom were watching me without getting tired of the lesson. This may have been an extracurricular lesson.
