Learning Beyond the Classroom: Al Siddiq International Kindergarten Students Stay Enthusiastic During Distance Learning

/

On Tuesday and Wednesday, 8–9 September 2026, students from Kindergarten A and Kindergarten B at Al Siddiq International took part in Distance Learning (PJJ) sessions via Google Meet. The programme was introduced as an adjustment to learning arrangements in response to environmental conditions around the school that were affected by volcanic ash from Mount Anak Krakatau. Taking the children’s safety and comfort into consideration, learning activities were conducted from home so that students could continue learning and interacting with their teachers and friends in a fun and engaging atmosphere. The implementation of Distance Learning was part of the school’s efforts to safeguard the health and safety of all students while environmental conditions were not yet suitable for face-to-face learning at school. Volcanic ash carried through the air can contain very fine particles that are easily inhaled. Exposure to significant amounts of volcanic ash may irritate the nose, throat, and respiratory tract, potentially causing symptoms such as coughing, throat discomfort, or difficulty breathing, particularly among children and individuals with sensitive respiratory systems. Therefore, learning from home became one of the preventive measures taken to reduce exposure to volcanic ash while ensuring that learning activities could continue. Although conducted online, the PJJ programme was carefully structured and designed to be interactive so that students could enjoy a meaningful learning experience. The activities began from 08.00 to 08.30 with Opening and Circle Time. During this session, students were encouraged to greet their teachers and friends, prepare themselves for learning, and take part in a variety of opening activities designed to create a positive and enjoyable learning atmosphere. From 08.30 to 09.00, students participated in Murojaah, as part of the school’s routine for reinforcing and maintaining previously memorised Qur’anic passages. This was followed from 09.00 to 09.30 by Snack Time and Duha Prayer. This part of the programme gave students an opportunity to take a short break, enjoy a snack, and practise their daily acts of worship. In this way, PJJ supported not only students’ academic development but also their spiritual growth, independence, and positive daily habits. During the learning session from 09.30 to 10.00, activities were adapted to the developmental levels and learning objectives of each group. On Tuesday, 8 September 2026, Kindergarten B students took part in Storytelling, Hide and Seek, and Playing, activities designed to develop language skills, understanding, and interaction through enjoyable experiences. Meanwhile, Kindergarten A students participated in School Things Hunt, an activity in which they searched for and identified various objects related to the school environment and their learning. On Wednesday, 9 September 2026, Kindergarten B students explored the concept of comparison through Comparing: More and Fewer, using an approach appropriate to their stage of development. Meanwhile, Kindergarten A students took part in Recognising and Writing Numbers 0–5. This activity gave the children an opportunity to recognise number shapes while gradually developing their early number-writing skills. Through the two-day PJJ programme, Al Siddiq International sought to ensure that environmental conditions did not prevent students from continuing to receive meaningful learning experiences. With the support of teachers and parents, learning activities could continue in a structured, interactive, and enjoyable way from home. The school also remained committed to prioritising students’ health and safety by adapting the learning process according to environmental conditions. This PJJ programme demonstrates that learning can continue through appropriate adjustments and creativity. Through Google Meet, Kindergarten A and Kindergarten B students were still able to learn, communicate, worship, play, and interact with their teachers and friends even while staying at home. May the environmental conditions soon return to a safe and conducive state, allowing all students to resume their face-to-face learning activities at school. Learning can happen anywhere, and with the right support, every moment can become a meaningful learning experience.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

Clean Up Friday: Clean Classroom, Ready for STS!

/

Al Siddiq International Primary School – Friday, 4 September 2026 Alhamdulillah, on Friday, 4 September 2026, Al Siddiq International Primary School once again held its Clean Up Friday activity under the theme “Clean Classroom, Ready for STS!” The activity formed part of the school’s positive daily routines aimed at developing students’ awareness of the importance of maintaining cleanliness, tidiness, and comfort within the school environment. On this occasion, Clean Up Friday also provided an opportunity for students to prepare their classrooms so that they would be clean, comfortable, and ready for the upcoming Sumatif Tengah Semester (STS). Classroom cleanliness is not simply about making a room look clean. It is also an important part of character education. Through this activity, students were encouraged to understand that maintaining cleanliness is a shared responsibility. Every student has a role to play in creating a healthy, comfortable, orderly, and enjoyable learning environment. Cleaning and Organising the Classroom During Clean Up Friday, students worked together with their teachers to clean and organise their classrooms. Tasks were divided among the students, allowing everyone to participate actively. Some of the activities included: Students cleaned their individual desks by wiping and organising them to remove dust, dirt, and unnecessary items. Clean and tidy desks can help students feel more comfortable when learning and completing their STS assessments. Textbooks and various classroom materials were reorganised neatly. Students learnt to return each item to its proper place, helping to keep the classroom organised and free from clutter. The whiteboard was also given attention. Students cleaned it so that it would remain tidy and ready to be used for learning activities after the STS. Students worked together to sweep the classroom floor, ensuring that there was no dust or rubbish left behind. A clean floor is an important part of creating a healthy and comfortable classroom. The rubbish collected during the activity was taken to the designated disposal area. Students were also reminded to make a habit of putting rubbish in the proper bins and not leaving waste inside or around the classroom. Keeping the Classroom Neat and Ready for STS Once all the cleaning activities were completed, students checked the classroom once again to make sure that every corner was clean, learning materials were properly organised, desks and chairs were arranged neatly, and the classroom was ready for the STS. Learning Responsibility Through Cleanliness Clean Up Friday provided students with a simple yet meaningful learning experience. They were not merely cleaning their classrooms; they were also learning about responsibility and teamwork. As students worked together to clean the classroom, they learnt that a comfortable environment does not happen by itself. It requires care and contribution from every individual. In this way, cleaning activities can help students become more independent and responsible for the environment around them. Students also learnt to complete assigned tasks, help their friends, take care of classroom facilities, and appreciate the results of their collective efforts. These small habits are expected to grow into positive character traits that students can apply in their everyday lives. Preparing a Comfortable Environment for STS In addition to being a regular activity for maintaining cleanliness, this week’s Clean Up Friday had special significance as it took place shortly before the Sumatif Tengah Semester (STS). A clean, tidy, and comfortable classroom can help create a more conducive atmosphere for students during their STS. With desks and chairs properly arranged, a clean whiteboard, organised classroom materials, and a clean floor, students can take part in their assessments more comfortably and remain focused. Preparing for the STS is not only about academic readiness. The learning environment is also an important part of the preparation. Therefore, through this activity, students were encouraged to take an active role in preparing their own classrooms. With the spirit of “Clean Classroom, Ready for STS!”, the students demonstrated that preparation for learning assessments can begin with simple things, including keeping their learning environment clean and organised. Building Good Habits Al Siddiq International Primary School continues to foster positive habits among students through activities that are closely connected to their everyday lives. One of these is developing the habit of maintaining cleanliness within the school environment. Clean Up Friday is expected to be more than simply an activity carried out on Fridays. More importantly, it aims to develop students’ awareness that cleanliness is a habit that should be practised every day. Students are encouraged to apply these habits in the classroom, throughout the school environment, and at home. This can begin with simple actions such as tidying their desks after use, returning books to their proper places, putting rubbish in the bin, and taking care of the facilities and belongings around them. Through consistent practice, values such as cleanliness, discipline, independence, responsibility, and teamwork can gradually become an integral part of students’ character. Clean Classroom, Happy Learning! The Clean Up Friday activity on Friday, 4 September 2026, was carried out with great enthusiasm and a strong sense of togetherness. Students showed excitement as they cleaned and organised their respective classrooms. Once the activity was completed, the classrooms were cleaner, tidier, and ready for use. The students’ smiles and enthusiasm added to the positive atmosphere created after completing their tasks together. May this activity help students understand that maintaining a clean classroom is a shared responsibility and that a comfortable learning environment can support a better learning experience. With their classrooms cleaned and prepared, the students are now ready to welcome the Sumatif Tengah Semester (STS) with enthusiasm, preparation, and confidence. Clean classroom, happy learning, and ready for STS! May all students of Al Siddiq International Primary School be granted ease, success, and the best possible results throughout the STS. Aamiin.

Al-Siddiq International Secondary School Supports Distance Learning as a Protective Measure for Students from the Impact of Volcanic Ash from Anak Krakatau

/

In Bekasi, Al-Siddiq International Secondary School supports the policy of the Bekasi City Education Office to implement Distance Learning (PJJ) as a precautionary measure to protect the school community from potential exposure to volcanic ash following the eruption of Anak Krakatau. The policy is implemented in accordance with Circular Letter of the Bekasi City Education Office Number 400.3/6/DISDIK.SER, as part of a collective effort to safeguard the safety and health of students and the entire school community. Exposure to volcanic ash requires particular attention because its particles can affect health, especially the respiratory system, eyes, and skin. Volcanic ash can irritate the respiratory tract and cause symptoms such as coughing, irritation of the nose and throat, and shortness of breath. Fine particles can also penetrate deeper into the lungs and cause inflammation. In addition, ash can cause red, sore, itchy, and watery eyes, as well as skin irritation. Children are among those who require particular attention when exposed to volcanic ash. In response to this situation, Al-Siddiq International Secondary School is taking part in preventive measures by conducting lessons online. In this way, students can continue their education without having to participate in face-to-face learning activities on the school premises while the Distance Learning policy is in effect. Distance Learning Begins with Dhikr and a Religious Talk Interestingly, Distance Learning at Al-Siddiq International Secondary School does not focus solely on academic achievement. The programme begins with collective dhikr as a form of spiritual effort, while also helping students develop a sense of calm and strengthen their closeness to Allah SWT. Following the collective dhikr, the programme continues with religious talks featuring two important topics aimed at supporting students’ character development. The first session is delivered by Mr Abdul Azis, S.Pd., entitled “Three Pillars for Building Good Character”. The session provides students with an understanding of the importance of developing good character as a foundation for life, both in their relationship with Allah SWT, their relationships with others, and in fulfilling their responsibilities as students. The next religious talk is delivered by Ustaz Ahmad Toha, entitled “Renewing Our Intention”. The session reminds students that every activity, including learning, should be based on a good and sincere intention. With the right intention, learning becomes more than an activity aimed at achieving academic results; it can also become an act of worship and a process of developing into a better person. Both religious talks provide valuable spiritual nourishment for the students, while strengthening character education and religious understanding, which are important elements of education at Al-Siddiq International Secondary School. Continuing with Qur’an and Academic Learning Following the religious activities, Distance Learning continues with Qur’an learning. This forms part of the school’s effort to maintain a balance between academic education and Islamic education. Students then participate in a range of academic lessons, including: EnglishCivicIslamic StudiesICT Although the lessons are conducted online, the essence of education and learning continues to be maintained. Teachers continue to deliver learning materials, guide students, and ensure that students are able to participate in the learning process effectively. The implementation of Distance Learning demonstrates that particular circumstances do not have to become a barrier to the school’s commitment to providing educational services. Through online learning, the school can continue its academic programme while giving students an opportunity to learn in a safer environment. Protecting Safety, Sustaining Education The implementation of Distance Learning at Al-Siddiq International Secondary School is a clear expression of the school’s commitment to making students’ safety and health a priority without compromising the continuity of their education. The school is not only taking steps to protect students from potential exposure to volcanic ash, but also ensuring that, while at home, they continue to receive academic education, Qur’anic guidance, character development, and religious instruction. In this way, Distance Learning is not simply an opportunity to study from home. It also becomes a valuable moment to teach students about taking appropriate measures, discipline, concern for health, resilience, and the importance of drawing closer to Allah SWT in every circumstance. Al-Siddiq International Secondary School remains committed to providing holistic education by developing knowledge, building character, and safeguarding the wellbeing of its students. “Protecting safety is an effort, sustaining education is a trust, and the two can go hand in hand.” Available next action:Create a downloadable PDF file here in this chat containing the finalized decisions and immediate actions aboveBy Retno Suzanne Handayani, Lc, M.Pd

Learning Through Touch and Sight at the Natural Materials Centre

/

On Monday and Tuesday, 31 August and 1 September 2026, students of Kindergarten A at Al Siddiq International took part in a learning-through-play activity at the Natural Materials Centre. This time, the children were invited to explore a variety of textures and colours through several activities prepared by their teachers. Through hands-on play, the children were able to become familiar with different objects around them by looking, touching, and trying things out for themselves. Before the activity began, the teacher provided an initial briefing. Several rules for playing at the centre were introduced, such as using the tools and materials properly, taking turns during activities, and keeping the play area tidy. The children were also given the opportunity to choose friends to form their groups. Through this process, the children began learning to follow rules while developing positive habits of playing and interacting with others. The teacher then introduced the theme of the activity and invited the children to observe the various objects and materials available in the classroom. Simple explanations were given about the objects, while the children were encouraged to observe their characteristics. They were then given opportunities to discover differences in colour and texture through their own experiences. During the exploration session, the children worked with their group members and took turns trying all the activities prepared by the teacher, including sorting pom-poms by colour, pretend cooking, playing with playdough, painting, and stamping. The children were able to touch, observe, and explore the different materials provided. Through these experiences, they began to discover that objects can have different colours and textures. Some materials felt smooth, rough, soft, or had other interesting characteristics waiting to be explored. The exploration activities provided more than just sensory experiences. They also helped develop the children’s curiosity and observation skills. The children were encouraged to try new things and discover new experiences through play. When touching or observing a particular material, they learnt to use their senses to gather information about the object they were exploring. In addition to learning about textures and colours, working in groups provided valuable opportunities for the children to develop their social skills. They learnt to wait for their turn, share tools and materials, and give their friends opportunities to participate. Simple habits such as taking turns and playing together helped the children learn to respect others and follow agreed rules. Throughout the activity, the teacher provided support and guidance according to the children’s individual needs. The teacher observed their exploration and asked simple questions or provided prompts to encourage them to think further. In this way, the children were not merely following instructions, but were also given opportunities to discover and understand what they experienced during play. Through this activity at the Natural Materials Centre, Kindergarten A students at Al Siddiq International enjoyed a learning experience that was both engaging and meaningful. Exploring textures and colours helped develop their sensory abilities, curiosity, observation skills, and social skills through interaction with their friends. Learning through direct experience gave the children greater freedom to try, discover, and enjoy every part of the learning process.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

Enhancing Qur’anic Teaching Competence: Al Siddiq International Primary School Teachers Take Part in Qur’an Training of Trainers (ToT)

/

Alhamdulillah, Al Siddiq International Primary School continues to demonstrate its commitment to improving the quality of education through the professional development of its educators. One of these efforts was demonstrated through the participation of teachers in the Training, Certification & Standardisation of Qur’an Teachers (Muallim Al-Qur’an) in Bekasi City. The training was held on Saturday, 5 September 2026, at Universitas Muhammadiyah Indonesia Bekasi. Four teachers from Al Siddiq International Primary School took part in the programme: Ust. Dede, Ust. Asep, Ustadzah Fanni, and Ustadzah Amrina. The teachers’ participation in this programme formed part of Al Siddiq International Primary School’s ongoing efforts to enhance the quality and professionalism of its educators, particularly in the field of Qur’anic education. As an important component of education at the school, Qur’anic learning requires teachers who are not only capable of delivering lessons, but who also possess the appropriate competence, understanding, and teaching methods to guide students effectively. The Training, Certification & Standardisation of Qur’an Teachers (Muallim Al-Qur’an) in Bekasi City provided the teachers with an opportunity to continue learning and developing their abilities. Through the programme, participants were able to broaden their knowledge and strengthen their readiness to fulfil their role as muallim who guide and accompany students in learning the Qur’an. For Al Siddiq International Primary School, enhancing teacher competence is an integral part of its efforts to improve the overall quality of education. Teachers interact directly with students every day; therefore, the quality and competence of educators have a significant influence on the quality of the learning experiences received by students. This is particularly important in Qur’anic education, where teachers play a significant role in developing students’ habits and love for the Qur’an. Teachers are not merely instructors, but also role models in attitude, discipline, perseverance, and devotion to the Qur’an. Through participation in this certification and standardisation programme, the teachers of Al Siddiq International Primary School are expected to gain new knowledge and valuable experiences that can be applied in classroom learning. As a result, Qur’anic learning at the school can continue to become more structured, effective, engaging, and responsive to students’ needs. Beyond the individual benefits for teachers, professional development programmes such as this are also expected to have a positive impact on the wider school community. The knowledge and experience gained can serve as a foundation for continued evaluation and improvement of the Qur’anic learning programmes at Al Siddiq International Primary School. A commitment to lifelong learning is also an important part of the school’s efforts to provide the best possible education for its students. The field of education continues to develop, requiring educators to continually enhance their knowledge and skills. Similarly, Qur’anic education requires a continuous commitment to improving the quality of learning so that students can receive the best possible educational experience. The participation of Ust. Dede, Ust. Asep, Ustadzah Fanni, and Ustadzah Amrina in this programme is expected to become a positive step towards strengthening the quality of Qur’anic education at Al Siddiq International Primary School. May the knowledge they have gained be shared, developed, and put into practice in the process of educating and guiding students. More broadly, the programme is expected to support the school’s aspiration to nurture a generation that is not only academically successful, but also possesses good character, strong Islamic values, and a close relationship with and deep love for the Qur’an. Qur’anic education is not simply about the ability to read verse after verse. It is also about nurturing the values of the Qur’an within students so that these values are reflected in their attitudes and everyday lives. Achieving this requires educators who possess both professional competence and exemplary character. Al Siddiq International Primary School will continue to support positive professional development opportunities that enhance the capacity and quality of its teachers. With educators who continue to learn and grow, the school hopes to further improve the quality of educational services provided to its students. Jazakumullahu khairan to Ust. Dede, Ust. Asep, Ustadzah Fanni, and Ustadzah Amrina for their enthusiasm and dedication in participating in the Training, Certification & Standardisation of Qur’an Teachers (Muallim Al-Qur’an) in Bekasi City. May every piece of knowledge they acquire become beneficial knowledge, every step taken in the pursuit of knowledge become an act of goodness, and every lesson taught to students become Sadaqah Jariyah, a continuous charity whose reward continues to flow. May Allah SWT always grant ease and guidance to all teachers at Al Siddiq International Primary School as they fulfil their trust and responsibility to educate, guide, and accompany students in becoming a generation that is knowledgeable, well-mannered, and deeply connected to the Qur’an. Keep learning, keep growing, and keep making a difference through the Qur’an. 📖 Al Siddiq International Primary SchoolBuilding Knowledge, Character, and a Qur’anic Generation.By By Muslihatul Maula, Lc

/

Bekasi, 31 August 2026 — Al-Siddiq International Secondary School held an important student leadership development programme through the Election of the OSIS President and Vice President for the next term of office on Monday, 31 August 2026. The election marked the transition of leadership from the outgoing OSIS committee to a new generation of student leaders who are expected to bring fresh enthusiasm, innovation, and positive contributions to the development of the school. The election took place in the Grade 8 and 9 Boys classroom and was filled with enthusiasm. The entire programme was attended by students, teachers, and staff of Al-Siddiq International Secondary School. The activity began with a prayer, followed by opening remarks from the Head of Al-Siddiq International Secondary School, Mrs Robiah Adawiyah, M.Pd.

Each candidate presented constructive visions and missions focused on the advancement of students and the school. The ideas presented by the candidates included efforts to improve various programmes and activities at Al-Siddiq, develop creative students, encourage critical thinking, promote academic excellence, and help students adapt to technological developments. This demonstrated that the OSIS election was not merely an opportunity to choose student leaders, but also a platform for students to learn how to express ideas, compete fairly, take responsibility, and participate in democratic life within the school environment. The voting process was conducted in an orderly manner. Each participant who cast their vote received an ink mark on their finger as proof that they had exercised their voting right.

Building a Strong House at the Block Centre

/

On Tuesday, 1 September 2026, students of Kindergarten B at Al Siddiq International took part in a learning-through-play activity at the Block Centre. During this activity, the children were invited to work in pairs to construct a house using building blocks. Working together allowed the children not only to learn how to arrange and build with blocks, but also to develop their ability to cooperate, exchange ideas, and create something together with a friend. Before beginning the activity, the teacher provided an initial briefing. The children were first introduced to the rules that needed to be followed while playing at the Block Centre, including how to use the blocks safely and responsibly. They were then given the opportunity to choose a friend to work with. Once the pairs had been formed, the teacher explained the activity: each pair would work together to build a house. Through this activity, the children were introduced to a simple concept of structural strength. The teacher encouraged them to observe how blocks could be arranged to form a house and how the lower parts of a structure support the parts above them. The children learnt that larger and stronger pillars or foundations can help make a structure more stable and less likely to collapse. This concept was introduced through hands-on play, allowing the children to observe, explore, and discover the answer for themselves. Throughout the activity, the teacher moved around the room to observe each group’s building process and provided guidance according to the children’s needs and the situations they encountered. For example, when a block structure suddenly collapsed, the teacher did not immediately rebuild it. Instead, the children were encouraged to observe and identify what might have caused it to fall. They were then guided to try making the pillars at the bottom wider or stronger so that they could provide better support for the structure. Through this experience, the children learnt to try again, find solutions, and understand the relationship between a building’s foundation and its stability. Building the houses in pairs also provided valuable opportunities for the children to develop their social skills. Working in groups of two required them to discuss the shape and design of their house, decide which blocks to use, and cooperate while constructing the structure. Differences in ideas became part of the learning process, helping the children learn to listen to one another, share responsibilities, and complete a task together. Once the buildings had been completed, the teacher documented the children’s creations as a form of appreciation for their efforts and the learning process they had undertaken. Each house had a different shape and arrangement, reflecting the ideas and creativity of each pair. The children learnt that a creation is not judged solely by its final result, but also by the process of trying, cooperating, and making improvements when difficulties arise. The activity concluded with the children tidying up the blocks they had used. They were encouraged to return the blocks to their proper places so that the play area could be organised once again. Through this simple routine, the children learnt to take responsibility for the materials they used while developing the habit of caring for their shared learning environment. Through this activity at the Block Centre, Kindergarten B students at Al Siddiq International gained an enjoyable and meaningful learning experience. Behind the simple task of building a house with blocks, the children were learning about basic construction concepts, structural strength, problem-solving, cooperation, creativity, and responsibility. Through hands-on play, the children discovered that when a structure is not yet strong enough, they can look for ways to make it more stable. It was a simple experience, yet one that taught an important lesson: keep trying, find solutions, and never give up easily.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

During the forum, the OSIS committee presented a report on the various work programmes that had been planned and implemented throughout their term of office. The report served as a form of accountability to the school, OSIS members, and advisers for the responsibilities and trust entrusted to them during the 2025/2026 term. Following the presentation, OSIS members and the advisers took part in an evaluation process and formally received the accountability report. This provided all members with an opportunity to review the achievements of the programmes, the challenges encountered, and the areas requiring attention and improvement for the next OSIS administration. One of the flagship programmes of the 2025/2026 OSIS administration was the creation of opportunities for students at Al-Siddiq International Secondary School to develop their creativity. OSIS sought to provide a platform for students to express their ideas, talents, interests, and abilities through various activities within the school environment. In addition, OSIS played an active role in enlivening various national and religious celebrations, as well as important school occasions, with OSIS committee members involved in organising and implementing the activities. Such involvement provided students with practical experience in planning events, distributing responsibilities, coordinating with one another, working as a team, and completing responsibilities collectively. The LPJ was not merely an administrative organisational agenda, but also an integral part of character education and student leadership development. Through their organisational experience, students learnt that leadership is not simply about implementing programmes, but also about fulfilling a trust, demonstrating responsibility, maintaining transparency, conducting evaluations, and being prepared to account for every responsibility entrusted to them. The programme, which began with morning dhikr and a tausiyah, also conveyed an important message: leadership at Al-Siddiq International Secondary School is developed not only through organisational skills, but also through spiritual growth and character development. A leader is expected to be able to work and collaborate effectively, while also demonstrating strong moral values, integrity, and a sense of responsibility. The OSIS advisers expressed their appreciation for the contributions and hard work of all committee members throughout the term. The achievements accomplished during the year were valuable milestones to be appreciated and celebrated, while the shortcomings and challenges identified served as important lessons for building a stronger organisation in the future. With the completion of this accountability report, the 2025/2026 OSIS administration has successfully completed one of the important stages in its organisational journey. The experience gained throughout the term is expected to become a valuable foundation for the students as they continue to develop their leadership abilities and make positive contributions to the school community. The activity also formed part of the process of student leadership regeneration, ensuring that the spirit of creativity, responsibility, collaboration, and care for the school can continue to be carried forward by the next generation of student leaders. Through dhikr and tausiyah, students strengthen their values. Through organisation, they learn to lead. And through accountability, they learn to become leaders who uphold their trust and responsibilities.By Retno Suzanne Handayani, Lc, M.Pd

“Play, Move, Grow!” Fun Basketball & Futsal Enrichment at Al Siddiq International Kindergarten

/

On Friday, 28 August 2026, the pupils of Al Siddiq International Kindergarten took part in Basketball Enrichment for girls and Futsal Enrichment for boys. The activities were held on the Al Siddiq International school field in an energetic and enthusiastic atmosphere. Through enjoyable sporting activities, the children were given opportunities to stay active, play together, and develop a range of skills that support their overall growth and development. The day began at 8:00 a.m. with the children’s arrival at school. After gathering together, the activities started with murojaah and circle time, which continued until 8:30 a.m. During this session, the children participated in activities with their teachers in a calm and enjoyable atmosphere before beginning their physical activities. Circle time also provided an opportunity for the children to prepare themselves for the day’s activities, listen to instructions, and interact with their friends and teachers. From 8:30 to 9:30 a.m., the girls participated in Basketball Enrichment on the school field. They were introduced to a variety of basic basketball activities adapted to their age and abilities. Meanwhile, the boys took part in journalling and snack time. After one hour, the groups swapped activities. From 9:30 to 10:30 a.m., the boys participated in Futsal, whilst the girls took part in journalling and snack time. Basketball and Futsal are not simply about keeping children physically active; they also support various aspects of their development. In terms of physical and motor development, sports activities help children develop body coordination, balance, agility, strength, and movement control. Activities such as running, jumping, kicking, throwing, and catching also provide valuable stimulation for the development of children’s gross motor skills. In addition to physical development, participating in sports together supports children’s social and emotional development. They learn to follow simple rules, take turns, cooperate with their friends, and respond positively to both winning and losing. Children also have opportunities to build their confidence and courage as they try new movements and skills. From a cognitive development perspective, Basketball and Futsal provide children with opportunities to understand instructions, recognise simple game rules, pay attention to their surroundings, and make decisions during activities. They learn to respond to different situations through movement and simple strategies, making sport an active and enjoyable part of the learning process. The Enrichment programme also provides teachers with valuable opportunities to observe children’s interests and potential. Every child has different interests and abilities. Through their direct experiences in Basketball and Futsal, teachers can observe how children respond to sporting activities, including their enthusiasm, willingness to try, ability to cooperate, movement coordination, and perseverance in participating. These observations can help the school and parents identify children’s interests and provide appropriate stimulation according to their individual needs and potential. Through Basketball and Futsal Enrichment, Al Siddiq International aims to provide learning experiences that extend beyond academic development and support children’s growth as a whole. In an active and enjoyable play-based environment, children can learn to move, cooperate, try new things, and discover activities that they enjoy. May these experiences become an early step towards helping the children grow into active, confident, healthy individuals with the opportunity to develop their fullest potential.

Exploring the World of Snakes: Al Siddiq International Primary School Presents an Educational and Engaging Profession Class

/

Al Siddiq International Primary School once again provided students with a unique and engaging learning experience through a Profession Class entitled “The World of Snakes and How to Handle Them”, held on Friday, 28 August 2026. Taking place from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. (WIB), the activity gave students the opportunity to learn more about the world of snakes while gaining valuable knowledge about how to respond to and handle encounters with snakes safely. The Profession Class is one of the school’s learning initiatives that gives students opportunities to gain first-hand insights from the real world. Through activities such as this, students do not learn solely from textbooks and classroom lessons, but also gain new perspectives through topics that are closely connected to their everyday lives. Exploring the World of Snakes Snakes are animals that can be encountered in a variety of environments. However, for some children, encountering a snake can still be frightening and raise many questions. Through the theme “The World of Snakes and How to Handle Them”, students were encouraged to learn about snakes from a more educational perspective. They discovered that snakes are an important part of the ecosystem and play a role in maintaining environmental balance. The activity also gave students the opportunity to learn about the characteristics of snakes, understand their behaviour, and discover what to do if they encounter a snake in their surroundings. With the right knowledge, students are expected to remain calm and avoid actions that could potentially put themselves or the animal at risk. Learning How to Respond to Snakes Safely One of the key elements of this Profession Class was helping students understand how to respond safely when encountering a snake. Students were introduced to basic safety principles when coming across a snake. They learnt that safety should always be the top priority and that snakes should never be approached or handled carelessly. This knowledge is particularly important because children need to understand how to behave when encountering animals that may pose a potential danger. With proper guidance, students can recognise appropriate actions and avoid risky behaviour. Through an educational and enjoyable approach, students learnt that curiosity about animals should always be accompanied by caution, knowledge, and a sense of responsibility. Learning Through Real-World Experiences The Profession Class offered students a different kind of learning experience. The fascinating topic encouraged them to explore their curiosity and ask a variety of questions. Activities such as this also help students connect what they learn at school with their everyday lives. They can see that the knowledge gained through education has practical value when dealing with different situations in their surroundings. In addition to broadening their knowledge about snakes, the activity also helped develop students’ courage and self-confidence. They learnt to approach something they might previously have considered frightening in a calmer and more informed way. Friday Sharing: Sharing Food with Friends Following the Profession Class, Friday activities at Al Siddiq International Primary School continued with the warm and meaningful Friday Sharing programme. As part of this activity, students were encouraged to bring food from home to share and enjoy with their classmates. The variety of food brought by the students created a joyful opportunity for everyone to spend time together. Friday Sharing is more than simply eating together. Behind this simple activity are important values that the school seeks to nurture in its students: sharing, caring, gratitude, and appreciation for togetherness. Students learnt that happiness can be found when we are willing to share with others. The food brought from home became a simple way for them to practise giving to their friends and enjoying meaningful moments together without differences or distinctions. Through activities such as these, Al Siddiq International Primary School continues to create learning experiences that are fun, safe, meaningful, and memorable for all students. It is hoped that this Profession Class will broaden students’ understanding of the world of snakes, raise awareness of the importance of safety, and encourage them to face new experiences with confidence and appropriate knowledge. Meanwhile, through Friday Sharing, students are encouraged to become increasingly accustomed to sharing, caring for others, and expressing gratitude for the blessings they have. Learning about nature, learning to stay safe, and learning to share with others — this is the spirit of Friday at Al Siddiq International Primary School.By By Muslihatul Maula, Lc

/

Al Siddiq International Secondary School held a Maulid celebration commemorating the birth of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) on Friday, 28 August 2026. The event took place on the second floor of the Al Siddiq International Secondary School Mosque and was attended by all students and members of the school’s academic community. The Maulid celebration served as a meaningful opportunity for the entire school community to remember the birth of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), whilst nurturing love and admiration for the Prophet and encouraging students to follow his exemplary character in their everyday lives. The programme began with the Duha prayer in congregation, followed by morning dhikr. The atmosphere became even more solemn as all participants listened to a religious lecture featuring Islamic guidance and reflections on the exemplary character and teachings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The programme continued with the recitation of Maulid Diba’, which was enthusiastically joined by all participants. The recitation of salawat and praises of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) created a deeply spiritual atmosphere throughout the celebration. The event concluded with a collective prayer. The students’ enthusiasm was evident throughout the programme. They participated in every activity in an orderly and wholehearted manner. The event was not merely a ceremonial celebration of the Maulid, but also served as an important means of character education and the cultivation of Islamic values within the school environment. Through the commemoration of the Maulid of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), Al Siddiq International Secondary School hopes that students will become more familiar with the life and character of the Prophet, develop a deeper love for him, and strive to emulate his qualities and noble character in their daily lives — at school, at home, and within the wider community. “Commemorating the Maulid of the Prophet is not merely about remembering his birth, but about nurturing our love for him and bringing his exemplary character into our daily lives.” With the spirit of the Maulid celebration, the Al Siddiq International Secondary School community remains committed to nurturing a generation that is not only excellent in knowledge and academic achievement, but also possesses noble character, a deep love for Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), and strong Islamic values.By Retno Suzanne Handayani, Lc, M.Pd
