Dear Saint Johners,

Academic year 2022 - 2023 has reached one semester this December and has given lots of experiences for every school member. Starting the first term with an integrated project and followed by the final test in term two make the learning journey full of colours. ‘Learn for Life’ is a value, an attitude and a skill that the students would need to possess. Saint John's students need to be resilient, adaptable and global in their outlook. They must feel curious and eager to learn as they pursue learning in their whole lifetime. Examination and grades are thus comparatively small milestones in the life journey of a student.

Some events that have been conducted in this semester were the heroes' day, Sumpah Pemuda, teachers appreciation's day, and outreach. Heroes' day and Sumpah pemuda events invited the parents to attend and to see the students' performances. The students showed drama, marching, singing, reading poems, story telling, and fashion show. The fashion show required the students to use recycle items as their costume.

Those events could be conducted because of the collaboration between parents, students and teachers. Saint John's school believes that collaborating between parents, students, and teachers is a compulsory to make holistic learning and to build better communication in achieving the vision and mission of this school. Scientia, virtus et vita should be reached together, hand in hand . Students should have knowledge and value in their life. Let us welcome year 2023 with new spirit and set higher goals for a better future.

Through this messages, Saint John's Primary School would like to say:

Merry Christmas 2022 and Happy New Year 2023

Wishing you a joyous Christmas and a prosperous New Year
