Dear GJS parent community,
Once again, I want to thank you for your continued support for the MYP Programme. As we transition into October, we will leave term one behind and enter term two.
Service as Action:
All MYP Global Jaya students will begin their Service as Action. This is an MYP requirement that is required to be completed before entering the Diploma Programme. In MYP Core classes, we will go over the requirements and learn how students can get involved in Service as Action. When students attend the Week without Walls, they will complete one of their Service as Action experience requirements. Students will also work with their groups to create activities during WWW.
Currently some students have already chosen to work with student clubs and activities as a service experience. For example, students can work with GJS TV, Hawkers, Green School, Pre-Med Club, Hawks Cup, Coach with Pak Alex and sports teams, tutoring in the primary, FLY (Friends of the Library), Buddy Programme with Ibu Arruna, and more.

MYP IDU - Interdisciplinary Unit
In the MYP, students demonstrate interdisciplinary understanding when they bring together concepts, methods, or forms of communication from two or more disciplines or established areas of expertise so that they can explain a phenomenon, solve a problem, create a product, or raise a new question in ways that would have been unlikely through a single discipline.
In each year of the programme, MYP schools are responsible for engaging students in at least one collaboratively planned interdisciplinary unit that involves at least two subject groups. At GJS, students work on their IDU before, during and after the Week Without Walls. The following subjects collaborate each year level of the MYP:
Year 7 - English LA and LL with Performing Arts
Year 8 - Bahasa Indonesia LA and LL with Design
Year 9 - Mathematics and Science
Year 10 - Individuals and Societies and PHE
This year, students will create an exhibition of what they learned on the WWW and during the IDU. We would like to invite the parent and school community to attend this event. Please save the date of November 6th from 1:00 to 3:00 to view what your child has learned
Year 10 options evening - Save the Date!
Please save the date of November 11th from 5:00 to 6:30 PM in the GJS theater to learn more about the Diploma Programme courses offered at GJS from the DP Coordinator Pak Ram. Afterwards, attendees will have the opportunity to talk to the teachers of the DP courses.
