In the spirit of compassion and the humanitarian values taught in Islam, Al Siddiq International School organised a Ramadhan Social Service Programme on Wednesday, 11 March 2026. This activity became an important moment to cultivate empathy, togetherness, and the spirit of sharing with others, particularly with the community living around the school environment. The event was officially opened by the Director of Al Siddiq International School, Mr Ginandjar Citra Cimarga, M.Pd. In his remarks, he stated that social service activities are an essential part of character education for students. Through such programmes, students not only learn academically but also gain a deeper understanding of social awareness, empathy, and responsibility as members of society. The next speech was delivered by the Principal, Mr Amal Dzikrullah, M.Pd, who emphasised the importance of viewing the holy month of Ramadhan as a time to strengthen solidarity and increase acts of kindness. He also expressed appreciation for the involvement of all parties—students, teachers, and the school committee—who contributed to the successful organisation of this social service programme. As a symbol of the beginning of the activity, a ceremonial handover of the social service aid was conducted by the Chairperson of the School Committee, Mr Triyoga, to the Principal. This handover represented a tangible form of collaboration between the school and the committee in supporting social programmes that benefit the wider community. Following the opening session, the programme continued with the distribution of social service packages to residents living around the Al Siddiq International School area. Notably, the distribution process was carried out directly by the junior high school students of Al Siddiq in turns. With great enthusiasm and a strong sense of responsibility, the students handed the aid packages to members of the community, allowing them to experience first-hand the true meaning of sharing and serving others. The activity took place in a warm atmosphere filled with a sense of togetherness. Smiles and happiness could be seen both from the beneficiaries and from the students who took part. This experience became a valuable lesson for the students, showing them that Islamic values are not only learned in the classroom but are also realised through real actions in everyday life. Through this Ramadhan Social Service Programme, Al Siddiq International School hopes to continue instilling the values of compassion, empathy, and generosity among its students, while also strengthening the harmonious relationship between the school and the surrounding community. Indeed, Ramadhan becomes even more meaningful when its blessings are shared together, in the spirit of generosity, care, and spreading goodness.By Retno suzanne handayani ,Lc, M.Pd

In an effort to enhance students’ understanding of Islam while nurturing their love for the Qur’an, Al Siddiq International School organised the Quranic Camp held on 9–10 March 2026 at Masjid Al Siddiq. The activity was attended by students with great enthusiasm and a warm sense of togetherness. The Quranic Camp was designed as a spiritual development programme that emphasised not only theoretical understanding but also the direct practice of acts of worship. The series of activities began with a workshop on the practical aspects of worship, including the correct method of performing wudu (ablution), tayammum, and the ritual bath (ghusl) in accordance with Islamic teachings. Through this session, students gained a deeper understanding of the importance of taharah (purification) as the foundation of a Muslim’s worship. As the time for breaking the fast approached, participants brought ta’jil from their homes to share and exchange with their friends. This moment created a warm atmosphere of togetherness while also teaching the values of sharing, brotherhood, and seeking blessings during the month of Ramadan. After breaking the fast together and performing the Maghrib prayer in congregation, the programme continued with tahsin of the Qur’an, where students improved their Qur’anic recitation under the guidance of their mentors. The evening was filled with qiyamul lail, during which students experienced the spiritual practice of waking in the night to perform voluntary prayers, supplicate, and engage in remembrance of Allah. The highlight of the programme took place the following morning with the khatm (completion) of the Qur’an, symbolising the students’ love for and closeness to the Holy Qur’an. A deeply moving and solemn atmosphere filled the mosque as the final verses of the Qur’an were recited. To conclude the programme, the organisers held a door prize session that brought additional joy to the participants. Happy smiles were seen on the students’ faces as they experienced a unique form of learning—studying religion in an atmosphere that was closer, warmer, and more enjoyable. Overall, the Quranic Camp provided not only practical knowledge about acts of worship but also a meaningful spiritual experience, strengthened the bonds of brotherhood among students, and instilled the values of togetherness and the blessings of Ramadan. With the conclusion of this programme, it is hoped that the students will return home with renewed enthusiasm in worship, improved Qur’anic recitation, and a stronger commitment to practising Islamic values in their daily lives.By : Retno Suzanne Handayani,Lc, M.Pd

SMP Al Siddiq International School conducted the Mid-Semester Summative Assessment (STS) from 2–6 March 2026. This academic evaluation activity took place over the course of one week and was attended by all junior secondary students as part of the process of assessing their learning achievements at the mid-point of the semester. This year’s STS was administered using a Learning Management System (LMS) as the primary platform for the examinations. The utilisation of this digital platform reflects the school’s commitment to integrating technology into the learning process while also fostering students’ digital literacy. Through this system, students were able to access examination questions, complete their tests, and submit their answers in a structured manner that could be monitored by their teachers. All subjects assessed in the STS were presented in English, in line with the international learning concept implemented at Al Siddiq International School. Meanwhile, for Islamic studies subjects, the questions and materials were prepared in Arabic in order to strengthen students’ language competence as well as their understanding of Islamic literature. The STS not only serves as a means of academic evaluation but also functions as an important instrument for measuring students’ level of understanding of the material studied during the first half of the semester. Through the results of this evaluation, teachers are able to reflect on the learning process and develop strategies to reinforce key materials so that subsequent learning can be even more effective. Throughout the examination period, the activities proceeded in an orderly and conducive manner. The students demonstrated discipline and responsibility in attending each examination session according to the predetermined schedule. Supervision was carried out by subject teachers and the academic team to ensure that the examination process remained honest, transparent, and in accordance with the school’s academic standards. With the implementation of the Learning Management System-based Mid-Semester Summative Assessment, SMP Al Siddiq International School continues to demonstrate its commitment to providing an educational system that adapts to technological developments while maintaining the quality of value-based learning, international language use, and the strengthening of Islamic scholarship.By : Retno Suzanne Handayani,Lc, M.Pd

Al Siddiq International School once again organised an important programme in nurturing students’ Qur’anic character through the Qur’an Munaqosyah, held from Monday to Friday, 9–13 February 2026. This activity is one of the school’s flagship programmes aimed at ensuring that the quality of students’ Qur’an memorisation is maintained at an optimal level. Munaqosyah is a comprehensive evaluation process of the Qur’an memorisation possessed by the students. During this activity, each participant is directly assessed by the Munaqosyah Team, consisting of examiners who are highly competent in the fields of tahfizh (Qur’an memorisation) and Qur’anic studies. The students are required to recite their memorised verses in a tartil manner while also responding to various forms of testing that assess the strength and accuracy of their memorisation. The implementation of munaqosyah is not merely a means of academic evaluation but also serves broader educational purposes. Through this activity, the school seeks to measure students’ Qur’an memorisation objectively while also assessing the accuracy of their application of tajwid and the correct articulation (makhraj) of each letter in the verses they recite. With a systematic assessment process, the students’ memorisation can be ensured to reach the level of mutqin—memorisation that is strong, fluent, and accurately preserved. In addition, munaqosyah also functions as a medium for developing the students’ mental resilience. By reciting in front of the examiners, students are trained to develop confidence, composure, and mental readiness in presenting their Qur’an memorisation openly. This experience is expected to help build strong character while also improving discipline in maintaining their memorisation. Furthermore, the munaqosyah serves as a standardisation process for graduation within the Qur’an tahfizh programme at Al Siddiq International School. Every memorisation achievement attained by the students must go through a strict verification process, ensuring that the quality of graduates remains consistent and meets clearly defined standards. More than just an assessment process, munaqosyah also serves as a meaningful moment to deepen students’ love for the Qur’an. Through the processes of memorising, preserving, and testing their memorisation, students are encouraged to realise that the Qur’an is not only meant to be memorised, but also to be understood, preserved, and practised in daily life. As one of the flagship programmes of Al Siddiq International School, the munaqosyah demonstrates the school’s commitment to nurturing a generation that excels not only academically but also maintains a strong connection with the Qur’an. Through continuous guidance and development, it is hoped that the students will grow into a Qur’anic generation with noble character, strong knowledge, and the ability to contribute positively to society.
