Languages
Our Indonesian language program fosters curiosity and critical thinking through a “language detective” approach, equipping students with foundational skills that support learning any language. We emphasize the connection between language and culture, ensuring students develop a deeper understanding of Indonesia and the world beyond vocabulary and grammar.
We are proud to be part of the ELLA Polyglots program, enhancing early language exposure through engaging digital experiences. Our commitment to immersive learning extends to special events, such as incorporating Indonesian language and culture elements into Sports Day.
In 2024, we were successfully accepted into the BRIDGE program, establishing an ongoing partnership with our sister school in Jakarta. This connection provides students with authentic opportunities to communicate with Indonesian peers, further enriching their cultural and linguistic understanding.
