We are delighted to announce that our school has been successfully selected to participate in the 2026–2027 ASEAN-Australia BRIDGE School Partnerships Program!

Through this exciting initiative, we have been matched with a sister school in Malaysia, creating an opportunity for our students and teachers to develop meaningful connections with another school in Southeast Asia.

As a school with a strong commitment to Indonesian language and cultural learning, this partnership provides an exciting opportunity to broaden our students’ understanding of the region.
Indonesia and Malaysia share geographical, historical, linguistic and cultural connections, while each country also has its own unique identity, traditions and customs. Our students will have the opportunity to explore these similarities and differences while learning about the lives of children in another part of the world.

Through online collaboration, shared learning activities and opportunities for cultural exchange, students will develop international friendships, intercultural understanding and a greater appreciation of the diverse communities that make up our region.

Our Indonesian language program will continue to be an important part of our school’s learning journey. This new partnership simply opens another door for our students to explore Southeast Asia and become more globally connected citizens.

We are incredibly excited about this opportunity and look forward to sharing our learning experiences with our school community as this partnership develops.
