Technology as Children’s Friend: Exploring Paint at Al Siddiq Kindergarten

/

On Thursday, 16 October 2025, the Kindergarten B pupils took part in an ICT (Information and Communication Technology) learning activity in the Computer Lab of Al Siddiq International Kindergarten. This activity was part of an early introduction to technology, where children were encouraged to use computers independently and enjoyably. The focus of this lesson was to get to know and use the Paint application to draw simple shapes. The activity began with the teacher’s instructions for the children to turn on their respective computers and follow the steps that had been previously taught. Once the computers were on, the children were asked to type the letters “p-a-i-n-t” in the search bar and click on the application. This process helped them practise following instructions and recognising letters through the keyboard. Although simple, this step served as an important foundation for developing their future digital skills. After opening the application, the children began drawing using the mouse. They were asked to create basic shapes such as circles, squares, and lines using the shape feature available in Paint. This drawing activity was not only an exercise in creativity but was also designed to develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and finger control when using digital devices. The main goal of this activity was to familiarise children with technology, help them understand basic computer functions, and enable them to use creative applications such as Paint to express their ideas. Additionally, it aimed to build the children’s confidence in using technology independently and safely. Through this fun and engaging activity, learning felt natural and enjoyable rather than burdensome. ICT learning at Al Siddiq International Kindergarten not only introduces children to the digital world but also gradually equips them with essential 21st-century skills. With a child-friendly and exploratory approach, Kindergarten B pupils learned that technology can be an exciting, creative, and useful learning tool.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

Al Siddiq International Primary School Undertakes BAN PDM Accreditation Visitation with a Spirit of Collaboration

/

Al Siddiq International Primary School carried out its accreditation visitation on Monday and Tuesday, 13–14 October 2025, following an official summons issued by BAN PDM (the National Accreditation Board for Primary and Secondary Education). The school received the call for the accreditation process in September 2025. Upon receiving the notification, the school promptly responded by forming an internal accreditation team and completing the accreditation instruments through the Sispena system. During the preparation stage, the school team worked diligently to compile and complete all necessary data and supporting documents that serve as the basis for accreditation assessment. These documents included the main Kurikulum Satuan Pendidikan (KSP – School Curriculum Document), the Annual Work Plan (RKT), the School Activity and Budget Plan (RKAS), the annual academic calendar, examples of lesson plans, photos or videos of the learning environment, and 14 points of DKA (Accreditation Performance Data), which cover various aspects of school performance. The data entry was carried out thoroughly and carefully to ensure all assessment components were presented comprehensively and accurately. Once the documents were verified and declared ready by BAN PDM, the school received an official notice confirming the visitation schedule for 13–14 October 2025. The accreditation visitation involved two assessors from BAN PDM: Mr Lukman Nurhakim, S.Pd., M.Pd., and Mrs Lilis Sumarni, S.Pd., M.Pd. In addition, the event was also attended by Mr M. Bambang Saryono, M.Pd., and Mr M. Eko Agustin, S.S., who represented the Bekasi City Education Office as supervisors and mentors. The first day began with a presentation of the school profile by the management team, outlining the school’s vision and mission, flagship programmes, achievements, and quality development strategies that have been implemented. Following this, the assessors listened to the school’s performance presentation and conducted discussion and confirmation sessions to explore the implementation of various programmes in greater depth. The agenda continued with teacher interviews to assess their understanding of learning implementation, interviews with parents to gather their perspectives on educational services, and classroom observations to review the learning process. The assessors also conducted a school environment inspection to ensure that facilities and infrastructure met accreditation standards. On the second day, the visitation focused on an in-depth interview with the Head of School, discussing leadership, school management strategies, learning innovations, and future development plans. The assessors also interviewed students to hear first-hand about their learning experiences. To conclude the process, the assessors presented their preliminary findings to the school. During this session, they expressed appreciation for the school’s positive achievements and provided recommendations for further strengthening the quality of educational services. The BAN PDM accreditation visitation was not merely an administrative evaluation but also an important opportunity for the school to conduct comprehensive evaluation, reflection, and quality improvement. Al Siddiq International Primary School approached this process with a spirit of collaboration, involving all stakeholders—teachers, staff, students, and parents alike. Through the smooth and well-organised two-day visitation, the school hopes to achieve an optimal accreditation result while continuing to advance its mission of delivering high-quality, Islamic, and globally competitive education.By Yundara Ulfa Priatna, M.Pd.
