All our children are warmly cared for, fully supported, and constantly challenged as they learn and grow uniquely and independently. Our Early childhood education teachers will establish a warm and positive relationship with you and your child, welcoming them into a secure and clean environment in which they could start their development. Consistent and frequent communications with parents will be provided. Teachers will report on your child's eating, sleeping, toilet training, and developmental activities. In the field of early childhood education, there is perhaps no greater area of a concern than accountability, both to the parents and to the children. Each child is special to us, a unique entity to be treated with dignity and affection. We personalize our care by concentrating on the individual child's interests through careful observation and communication. Keiki "Intercultural" Preschool provides a setting for children from different backgrounds to share their culture, tradition, religion, and at certain times their language.

Keiki "Intercultural" Preschool provides a setting for children from different backgrounds to share their culture, tradition, religion, and at certain times their language. This program aims to boost academic preparedness for children who had finished the Kindergarten program. This program will prepare them for the rigors of first grade and will introduce more formal and structured academic and reading activities. In Pre-First class, there is an expectation that children can be independent and occupy themselves with activities while waiting for more instructions from the teacher. Here at Keiki, we offer academic, cultural, and recreational programs as an extension of our regular school day. Our After School and Extracurricular programs operate starting from 3:00 PM until 6:00 PM. During this time, children can participate in a variety of activities ranging from gym and sports to science and arts. They will further develop and hone their skills as well as have fun doing so. The world of books has always been a source of great wonder and information that can satisfy a child's curiosity about the world around them. We believe that getting a good start on basic reading skills can help develop your child's confidence in reading, nurture his or her sense of fascination for the world and build a strong foundation for reading in elementary school and up! Try our reading program and get your child off to a wonderful start in their reading journey. Some kids get the hang of learning Maths very easily while others need more help and that's ok! Every child has different learning speeds when it comes to Maths. The most important point is to make sure that they ENJOY the process of learning Maths and that is where our tutoring comes in. We want to share the enjoyment of learning numbers, shapes, and Mathematical formulas to the kids through interactive lessons full of interesting activities and games, hands-on personal instruction from our teachers, and a fun motivational system that will help build their confidence in tackling the Maths subject. We believe that children should be valued as unique individuals. We want the children to develop a sense of responsibility for their learning process and to appreciate their journey to be the best versions of themselves. We encourage them to be curious, to ask questions, and to not be afraid of making mistakes. Our job is to ensure that their journey will be meaningful and fun and to establish a warm connection between school and home through the wonderful parents who are vital to their children's continued growth and development outside of school. want to provide a warm and positive learning environment for the children in which they would be able to grow into the best version of themselves.

We provide educational excellence in a supportive community environment, preparing our students to thrive and succeed as responsible global citizens in a changing world. The Intercultural School of Bogor was originally founded in 1974 as the Bogor Expatriate School (BES) to educate children of the international community. Thanks to new regulations, in 1998 we opened our doors to Indonesian families and changed our name to reflect the truly multicultural learning environment that we provide. ISB became a member of the East Asian Regional Conference of Schools (EARCOS) in 1976 and the same year was registered as a Yayasan. As a non-profit organization, the school is governed and administered by a 3-tier board of directors consisting of present and past members of the school community, thereby ensuring that the interests of the children and the school are always at the forefront of the agenda.

Educating children for most of my adult life. If you are reading this letter it is likely because we share that commitment and the idea that it is through education that we can make a difference in the lives of our children, and through them in the world that we share. Education is fundamentally about the future, and about our shared belief that we can change the futures of our children for the better. Sometimes we speak of education as making an “investment” in those futures. I think, however, “investment” might not capture all of what is important about what it is we are doing when we make that most important decision about what school will best serve our children. There is an adage that says “Society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they do not expect to sit.” Education is like the planting of those trees. Education is not just an investment, but an act of faith that we can produce not only better futures for our children but also children well-educated who can make that world a better place. We live in unique and challenging times, and at NJIS we strive to educate our students for that future. We understand that we need to tend to our students as individuals, and as capable learners who need to be equipped with the skills that are necessary for success. We recognize that it is important for students to have creative learning opportunities to prepare them to meet unknown challenges. We ensure that we provide time in class for students to share their ideas, express their opinions and describe their perspectives so they can be ready to collaborate across boundaries to solve common problems. We encourage the students to engage in real-world experience projects that allow them to learn through topics that interest them. In short, we at NJIS are planting those trees – and lots of them. We are preparing our students for a future, and shaping that future by that preparation. Choosing a school for your child is one of the most important decisions you will ever make, and we are eager to help you make it. I invite you to learn more about us not only through our website but by arranging a personal visit to our campus. See for yourself how students and faculty interact with one another. Browse the library and computer labs, visit the classrooms, and take in our theater. I am confident that you will discover that NJIS is an exceptional place, where learning becomes a lifelong skill. Welcome to the NJIS Library. At NJIS we believe that the library is the heart of any school. Our mission is to inspire, encourage and equip our school community for a lifelong love of reading and learning while supporting and enhancing school curricular and co-curricular activities. Towards this aim, we provide a comfortable, happy and quiet environment for our inquisitive young learners and endeavor to support the whole school community in their pursuit of quality information and leisure reading material. We encourage all learners and parents to borrow books from our library. Research consistently proves that reading for pleasure is highly related to learner achievement and improvement in literacy. This includes reading, writing, comprehension, spelling, and vocabulary. To expose learners to a wide range of texts and topics, learners are encouraged to borrow fiction (literary) and non-fiction (factual texts). View full school

SIS was established in 1996 with the support of respected individuals from the Singapore government and Raffles Institution. SIS subscribes to the Singapore education system because of its disciplined approach to educational pedagogy. It is also responsive to changes in the world. No wonder it ranks number one in the world, based on the latest PISA rankings. Today with our schools in almost all major cities in Indonesia and the region, we look to promote 21st-century skills in this unpredictable world.

The majority of our student body wants to continue their university education outside of Indonesia. If you fall into this category, then SIS is the obvious choice for your child. SIS was started by the U.S. Consulate in 1971 and has more experience than any other school in Surabaya preparing students to be successful in universities around the world. To be successful in universities, knowledge of English is not enough. Students at SIS are exposed to a rigorous curriculum using U.S. standards. We follow the IB PYP model in elementary school and an American middle school and high school model in secondary. Our classes culminate with Advanced Placement (AP) courses offered by the College Board which gives students exposure to introductory university classes while still in high school. A curriculum is only as strong as its teachers. Our teaching staff is where SIS outshines every other school in Surabaya. SIS hires the finest international teachers from around the world to work closely with the finest Indonesian staff. All of our core classes from Kindergarten to Grade 12 are taught by ex-pat teachers with experience in their home country, as well as other excellent international schools around the world.

Worldview is a training center located in picturesque Northern Tasmania. We are about living and working together, expressing and experiencing our discipleship values, community, diligence, and praxis. We offer accredited courses to better prepare you for ministry and mission. In conjunction with living and doing life as a community, these courses provide invaluable training for cross-cultural work, wherever that may be. In short: we are a Christ-centred discipleship community, training for cross-cultural ministry. We offer a cross-cultural ministry learning experience like no other. Operating in partnership with the Melbourne School of Theology, we deliver courses at the Australian College of Theology. The content of those courses is delivered by practitioners who all have mission experience. We are wholly and completely committed to equipping people for God’s mission globally, and many of our graduates go on to full-time ministry with a range of mission agencies. Studying at Worldview means you have a range of award possibilities, depending on your needs. We are residentially based and offer courses taught by qualified teachers who understand the theoretical implications of living and working cross-culturally but have experienced firsthand the realities of what it means to do so. Speaking from experience, we are convinced that a crucial part of cross-cultural training is doing life with others. Books and class experiences are integral to our training. However, life in the community provides self-awareness, cross-cultural appreciation, and team dynamics; you cannot obtain it any other way. If you are serious about working cross-culturally, then you will inevitably face the prospect of working with others who see things and behave differently than you do. For this reason, eating and working together as part of our daily rhythm go hand in hand with academic studies. Worldview offers a cross-cultural ministry learning experience like no other. The content of our courses is prepared and delivered by specialists in the field. Our students come from all around the world. And the residential context for our learning community delivers multi-cultural life right to your door. We have much fun doing what we do, but we are serious about this: he has asked us to take His good news to all people, and Christians need to be prepared for the challenges this work brings. That is where Worldview comes in. Worldview’s mission is to equip the global church to make disciples of all nations. View full university
