EY Mother’s Day Celebration: A Pampered Morning with Mom 🌸
Written by Ms. Lecya
This year, our Early Years students celebrated Mother’s Day by treating their moms like queens. Upon arrival, each mother was crowned with a handmade paper crown, lovingly crafted by their child, symbolising not only the day but the queenly role moms play in their lives.
The celebration began with our little ones serving their moms croffles and a warm cup of tea, returning the favour for all the love and care moms give every morning. Laughter echoed, cameras clicked, and countless memories were made in the cosiest way.
Next, students proudly guided their mothers to the spa area. The Drama Room was transformed into a warm, peaceful retreat, where moms relaxed on comfy mats while receiving gentle hand and shoulder massages from their children. A big thank-you to our Junior Student Council, who took the lead in demonstrating the massage steps for our EY students.
The event closed with a heartfelt sing-along of “Row, Row, Row Your Boat” and “I Love You, You Love Me”, strengthening the emotional bond between mother and child. It was a heartwarming scene that brought smiles to every face in the room.
Before leaving, each mother took home a Polaroid photo from our photo booth—a sweet souvenir of a truly special morning.
We thank all the families who joined and helped make this event such a success. Your warmth and enthusiasm filled the space with joy. Most importantly, it reminded us how meaningful even the simplest moments can be, especially when shared with the ones we love the most.
Until next year—Happy Mother’s Day! 💖
ES Mother’s Day Celebration: Together in Colour 🎨
Written by Ms. Lecya
This year’s Mother’s Day celebration for our elementary students was truly vibrant and bursting with colour!
The air was filled with excitement as each mom-child pair arrived with plain white T-shirts, ready to turn them into bright, creative keepsakes through a fun tie-dye activity. Mothers and students worked side by side, unleashing their creativity and expressing their love through colours. Laughter echoed as hands got delightfully messy with dye, and shirts transformed into unique, personal masterpieces.
It was heartwarming to witness the smiles, shared giggles, and proud glances as children proudly showed off their finished creations to their moms.
Alongside the colourful fun, the event also featured a snacks and refreshments corner, where families could relax, connect, and enjoy the moment together. To cap off the experience, a Polaroid photo booth gave moms and kids the chance to pose together, capturing the love and joy of the afternoon in a cherished keepsake.
We extend our warmest thanks to all the families who joined us for this special event. Your enthusiasm and presence helped create a meaningful celebration, filled with colour.
Until next year—Happy Mother’s Day! 💖
INFANT - Understanding the World
Written by Ms. Jill
This week, our infant class had a delightful time learning about the colour orange! We kicked off our adventure by meeting our feathery friend, Orange Hen. The children were all smiles as they explored her light, soft, and fluffy feathers while singing and dancing to the song "Put the Feather On". This activity supported sensory awareness and early listening skills.
Our curious little scientists also participated in a fun and safe colour-mixing experiment! Using just their hands, they tapped and splashed yellow and red paint on the table, watching in awe as orange appeared like magic! This hands-on activity encouraged cause-and-effect understanding and strengthened their fine motor coordination.
The fun continued with orange-themed sensory tubs filled with orange rice and pasta, where the children practiced grabbing, pulling, and scooping, boosting their fine motor skills, tactile exploration, and hand-eye coordination.
They also explored the soft, mushy texture of mashed carrots, supporting oral sensory development and messy play exploration. To top it all off, the class had a blast during parachute play, watching the bright orange fabric float and wave—an exciting way to promote visual tracking, body awareness, and social interaction.
NURSERY - Chinese Language
Written by Bi Qin Laoshi
本学期，Nursery班的孩子们在充满乐趣和探索精神的中文学习环境中快乐成长。我们以“交通工具”为主题，围绕孩子们的兴趣，通过唱歌、跳舞、游戏、手工制作、情景剧表演、故事讲述等多样化的教学方式，为幼儿们营造了一个轻松、愉快且富有启发性的中文学习氛围。
This term, the children in our Nursery class have thrived in a fun and explorative Chinese learning environment. Centred around the theme of “transportation”, we designed activities based on the children’s interests. Through a rich variety of experiences, including singing, dancing, games, arts and crafts, role play, and storytelling, we have created a relaxed, enjoyable, and inspiring space for our young learners to explore the Chinese language.
在丰富多彩的互动活动中，孩子们以主动参与的方式，潜移默化地学习了中文词汇和简单的中文句型。他们不仅提升了对中文的兴趣，更在活动中建立了自信心和表达能力。通过游戏与实践相结合的教学模式，孩子们自然而然地爱上了中文，乐于尝试在日常活动中说出“小汽车”、“救护车”、“飞机”、“我喜欢……”等常用中文词汇与短句。
In these colourful and interactive activities, the children have actively participated and naturally absorbed Chinese vocabulary and simple sentence patterns. They not only developed a greater interest in Chinese but also built confidence and communication skills through engaging in the learning process. With the combination of play and practice, our little learners have joyfully embraced the language, confidently attempting to say everyday words and phrases such as “small car (xiǎo qì chē), ambulance (jiù hù chē), aeroplane (fēi jī),” and simple sentences like “I like (wǒ xǐ huan...”.
孩子们在“玩中学，学中玩”的过程中，每天都在不断进步。我们为每一位幼儿的努力和成长感到骄傲，并期待他们在今后的学习旅程中，继续保持对中文学习的热情，勇敢探索中文的美妙世界！
Through “learning through play and playing through learning”, the children continue to make remarkable progress each day. We are extremely proud of every child’s effort and growth, and we look forward to supporting them as they continue their exciting journey of learning Chinese, exploring the beauty and wonder of the language with enthusiasm and courage.
PRE-KINDERGARTEN - Indonesian Language
Written by Ms. Valerina
This week, our little learners in Pre-K explored the theme of recreational places through hands-on fun!
They embarked on a pretend adventure, hiking up a “mountain” (complete with a picnic!) and “visiting” the beach. Wearing hats and sunglasses, they happily enjoy playing in the sand, splashing in a mini pool, popping bubbles, and, of course, playing with toys that complete their fun beach experience.
Taking children on recreational trips isn’t just fun– it’s foundational! By engaging in role-play and creative exploration, children develop:
✔️ Socio-emotional skills (teamwork, sharing, and expressing joy together )
✔️ Appreciation for nature (noticing texture like sand and water, and caring for their environment )
✔️Creativity (shaping sand into animals or objects sparks imagination and problem-solving)
We believe that playful and nature-inspired learning helps children connect with the world around them, and it’s a delight to watch their curiosity grow!

Our Kindergarten 1 students had a wonderful start to their swimming journey. Everyone was excited to get in the pool and explore the water together. For many, it was their first time practising swimming skills, and we focused on helping them feel comfortable and safe. Using floating devices and poolside support, the children practised moving around the water at their own pace. Each small step helped build their confidence and joy in swimming. We are proud of their progress and look forward to more fun and learning in the pool.
K2 - Literacy
Written by Ms. Czarina
K2 Literacy.mp4In English class, our K2 students have been enthusiastically building their vocabulary through a variety of engaging and interactive activities. One of the highlights has been the “Go Swat and Read” game—a lively exercise that helps children recognise and remember tricky words while having fun. These kinds of playful learning experiences not only make word practice enjoyable but also encourage students to use new vocabulary in their daily conversations.
To reinforce their learning, students are also encouraged to use these words in complete sentences and to memorise their spellings with confidence. As their language skills develop, they are beginning to write their own sentences and even short compositions. Recently, they wrote about their family vacations—an activity they truly enjoyed. It was heartwarming to see how excited they were to share their stories with their peers, confidently recalling special memories and putting them into words.
We’re so proud of how far our young learners have come, and we look forward to watching them continue to grow as confident and expressive communicators!
GRADE 1 - Field Trip
Written by Mr. Robert
Recently, Grade 1 students had a fun and exciting time visiting Museum Layang-Layang in South Jakarta. The trip was a great way for the children to learn more about kites and enjoy time with their friends outside of the classroom.
When we arrived at the museum, the students were greeted by a friendly guide who told us about the history of kites. The children were surprised to learn that kites have been around for thousands of years and were used for many different things, like measuring wind and even for sending messages.
Next, the students got to see many different kinds of kites. Some were small and simple, while others were big and colourful. There was even a kite shaped like a dragon and another that looked like a horse-drawn carriage. The children were amazed by the different designs and how creative people can be.
After looking at the kites, the students had the chance to make their own unique one using paper, string, and sticks. Some drew pictures on them, while others added stickers and other decorations. Once the kites were finished, the children went outside to fly them. It was a bit tricky at first, but with some help, most of the kites took to the sky.
Overall, the trip to Museum Layang-Layang Indonesia was a memorable experience. The students learned about the history and art of kite-making and had a great time creating and flying their own kites.
GRADE 2 - Field Trip
Written by Ms. Melissa
On Tuesday, 15 April 2025, the Grade 2 students went on an exciting educational field trip to PT. Putra Perkasa Genetika, a facility known for its structured approach in poultry farming and egg production.
During the visit, the students learnt about the entire egg production process, starting from the care and feeding of hens to the packaging and distribution of eggs. The staff guided them through the company's hierarchical system, explaining each department’s role—from hatchery operations to quality control.
It was a hands-on learning experience where children got to see live chicks, observe how eggs are collected and cleaned, and even had the chance to ask lots of questions. The tour not only supported their science curriculum but also sparked curiosity and enthusiasm for learning about where food comes from.
The students had so much fun and came back full of new knowledge and stories to share. It was truly a memorable day filled with discovery and joy!

Creative Adventure at the Museum of Fine Arts and Ceramics
What do you get when you mix curious kids, a museum full of beautiful art, and a whole lot of clay? A fantastic field trip, of course!
Grade 3 students enjoyed an exciting and educational field trip to the Museum of Fine Arts and Ceramics. The visit gave students the chance to explore Indonesia’s rich artistic heritage while getting their hands dirty with some creative clay work!
The day kicked off with a guided tour around the museum, where students saw beautiful collections of traditional ceramics, sculptures, and fine arts from different parts of Indonesia. They were fascinated by the intricate designs on old pottery pieces and listened attentively as museum guides explained how artists used natural materials and handmade tools long ago. Many students asked thoughtful questions and took notes to share in class later.
But the real fun began when it was time to get messy. With sleeves rolled up and clay in hand, Year 3 became little artists themselves in a hands-on pottery workshop. Some made bowls; others tried their hand at patterned plates. There were giggles, squishy fingers, and lots of proud smiles.
The trip not only sparked the children’s creativity but also deepened their appreciation for traditional arts and crafts.
Well done, Grade 3! You’ve brought art to life with your hands and hearts.

Exploring the Science of Papermaking: A Field Trip to Pindo Deli Karawang
Our students recently had an exciting and educational field trip to Pindo Deli Karawang, part of the Sinarmas Group, to learn how chemical changes are involved in transforming raw materials like wood pulp and recycled paper into usable paper products.
At the start of the visit, students were introduced to the Sinarmas Group’s vision, mission, and their commitment to sustainability. They learnt how recycled materials are reused efficiently and how paper production can be done with care for the environment.
Inside the facility, students saw firsthand how pulp is made, how it flows through different industrial machines, and how heat and pressure are used to create paper. Seeing the giant machines, the soft pulp, and the step-by-step process helped connect classroom science to the real world.
Students shared their excitement:
“My favourite part was seeing the pulp and the machines—it felt like I was inside a science documentary!”
“I never imagined how much goes into making a single sheet of paper,” another added.
Beyond the learning, the trip was full of fun. On the bus ride, students sang along to old and new songs, laughed, and enjoyed each other’s company. It was a great time to relax, bond, and make lasting memories.
This trip to Pindo Deli was a perfect blend of science, sustainability, and friendship—a learning experience our students won’t soon forget.
