The classroom refurbishment at Al Siddiq International Kindergarten took place on Thursday and Friday, 25–26 June 2026. The activity was carried out by the kindergarten teachers within their respective classrooms as part of the school’s preparations for the 2026/2027 Academic Year. This initiative represents an important step in creating a learning environment that is tidier, more comfortable, safer, and better suited to the developmental needs of young children. The classroom refurbishment was undertaken in response to the existing classroom layout, where the kindergarten learning spaces feature open roller doors and are separated only by storage lockers. Consequently, a thoughtful reorganisation was required to establish clearer boundaries between classrooms while maintaining an open, orderly, and welcoming environment. With careful planning, each classroom could provide a more conducive setting for learning, playing, and social interaction. The primary objective of this refurbishment was to create a well-organised learning environment that actively supports children’s development. A tidy and structured classroom helps children to concentrate more effectively, understand the different learning areas, and feel secure while participating in school activities. Furthermore, the improved classroom arrangement enables teachers to organise learning activities more efficiently, manage teaching resources effectively, and supervise pupils more comfortably throughout the school day. The benefits of the classroom refurbishment extend to both pupils and teachers. For the children, a well-organised classroom promotes comfort, enthusiasm for learning, and the development of positive habits such as keeping their environment tidy from an early age. For teachers, an organised classroom supports smoother lesson delivery, as learning materials and equipment are stored systematically and can be accessed easily whenever required. The repositioning of the storage lockers as classroom dividers also helps define each learning area while preserving the flexibility and openness of the available space. The refurbishment process began with a comprehensive decluttering session. Teachers carefully sorted through classroom resources, including teaching materials, educational media, toys, stationery, and other classroom equipment. Items that remained in good condition and were still suitable for use were neatly reorganised and stored, while damaged, unused, or unnecessary materials were removed to maximise the available classroom space. Once the sorting process had been completed, the teachers reorganised the classroom layout by repositioning the storage lockers and other furnishings. The lockers were arranged to function not only as storage units but also as practical dividers between classrooms. This arrangement was carefully planned with consideration for the children’s comfort, ease of movement, accessibility, and safety throughout daily learning activities. As a result, the classrooms retained their open atmosphere while providing clearer boundaries between each learning space. The final stage involved arranging all selected materials according to their purpose and function. Teaching resources, stationery, books, educational toys, and other classroom equipment were carefully placed in appropriate locations. Every area of the classroom was organised to create a clean, attractive, and practical learning environment for everyday use. This orderly arrangement also encourages children to develop simple organisational habits, such as returning items to their proper place after use. Through this classroom refurbishment initiative, the teachers of Al Siddiq International Kindergarten have demonstrated their commitment to providing the very best learning environment for every child. A classroom is not merely a place for academic learning; it is also a space where children grow, play, explore, develop independence, and build confidence. With the collaborative efforts of the teaching team, it is hoped that the refreshed classrooms will provide an even more comfortable, organised, and enjoyable environment in which every child can thrive throughout the new academic year.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

The Al Siddiq International Kindergarten Teachers’ Strategic Planning Meeting for the 2026/2027 Academic Year was held from Monday to Friday, 22–26 June 2026. The meeting took place in the kindergarten classrooms and was attended by all Al Siddiq International Kindergarten teachers. This annual planning session is one of the school’s most important preparations before the beginning of a new academic year, providing teachers with the opportunity to carefully organise and develop every aspect of the learning programme in accordance with the developmental needs of young children. The primary objective of the meeting was to design the learning programmes, establish developmental indicators, and prepare a comprehensive educational plan for the 2026/2027 Academic Year. Throughout the discussions, teachers collaboratively reviewed the developmental needs of the children, identified the learning outcomes they aimed to achieve, and designed age-appropriate activities that reflected the characteristics and abilities of kindergarten pupils. Through careful planning, the school aims to create learning experiences that are enjoyable, meaningful, and supportive of each child’s holistic development. The meeting began with the preparation of the effective school calendar. During this session, teachers determined the official teaching days while taking into account public holidays, school holidays, special events, and other key activities scheduled throughout the academic year. Establishing the school calendar provides a strong foundation for organising the learning programme, ensuring that all activities are well coordinated and implemented according to schedule. Once the academic calendar had been finalised, the meeting continued with the selection of annual learning themes and classroom activities. Teachers discussed the themes that would be introduced throughout the year and developed engaging learning experiences aligned with the children’s developmental indicators. The programme was carefully designed to promote not only cognitive growth but also the development of religious and moral values, social and emotional skills, language development, physical and motor skills, and artistic expression. In addition to preparing the annual learning programme, the teachers also planned two important activities that would take place at the beginning of the new academic year: the School Orientation Programme (MPLS) and the Parent–Teacher Conference (PTC). The School Orientation Programme is designed to help children become familiar with their new school environment, enabling them to feel comfortable, secure, and ready to begin their learning journey. Meanwhile, the Parent–Teacher Conference serves as an important platform for communication between teachers and parents, allowing both parties to discuss each child’s development and establish a strong partnership throughout the academic year. Through this Strategic Planning Meeting, the teachers of Al Siddiq International Kindergarten were able to strengthen their shared vision, develop effective teaching strategies, and clearly define individual roles and responsibilities. Close collaboration among teachers remains essential to ensuring that every planned programme is implemented successfully. With thorough preparation and careful planning, the 2026/2027 Academic Year is expected to provide an active, enjoyable, and enriching learning experience that positively supports the growth and development of every child.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

On Friday, 19 June 2026, Al Siddiq International Kindergarten held its Semester Two Report Distribution Day. The event took place in each classroom and was attended by the kindergarten pupils together with their parents. The distribution of report cards is one of the most important events at the end of the academic year, as it provides parents with a comprehensive overview of their children’s progress throughout their learning journey at school. The primary purpose of the Semester Two Report Distribution was to present a detailed report on each child’s development over the course of the academic year. The reports covered a wide range of developmental areas, including cognitive development, language skills, motor skills, social and emotional development, religious and moral values, and personal independence. Through these reports, parents were able to gain a holistic understanding of their children’s learning progress, focusing not only on final achievements but also on the continuous growth they had demonstrated throughout the year. In addition to reviewing each child’s overall development, the event held particular significance for the Kindergarten B pupils. Teachers shared detailed evaluations of the children’s readiness to begin their primary school education. These reports helped parents understand their children’s preparedness in terms of academic ability, attitude, independence, and social skills. As a result, parents were better equipped to provide appropriate guidance and support as their children prepared to move on to the next stage of their educational journey. The report distribution sessions were organised in an orderly manner, with parents attending their children’s classrooms according to individual appointment times arranged with the class teachers. This schedule ensured that each meeting could take place in a comfortable, focused, and unhurried environment. Every parent had the opportunity to discuss their child’s progress personally with the teacher. During these meetings, teachers did more than simply hand over the report cards. They provided detailed explanations of each child’s achievements, learning habits, strengths, and the areas that would benefit from further development. Parents and teachers also exchanged valuable observations regarding the children’s progress both at school and at home. This open communication is essential in ensuring that children receive consistent guidance and support in every aspect of their development. The Semester Two Report Distribution at Al Siddiq International Kindergarten reflects the strong partnership between the school and parents in supporting each child’s growth and development. Through this collaborative approach, it is hoped that parents will gain an even deeper understanding of their children’s individual needs and continue to provide positive encouragement and guidance. Effective communication between teachers and parents enables every child’s development to be monitored and supported more effectively. Overall, the Semester Two Report Distribution was much more than the presentation of academic reports; it was also an opportunity for shared reflection on a year filled with meaningful learning experiences and personal growth. Throughout the academic year, the children have embraced many valuable experiences that have contributed to their development. May all pupils of Al Siddiq International Kindergarten continue to grow into confident, independent young learners who are well prepared for the next stage of their educational journey.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

Afterwards, each class participated in a photo session with their parents, creating precious memories of a joyful and meaningful day. Parents were visibly proud and delighted to witness their children performing confidently on stage. Before the event officially concluded, everyone gathered for a potluck meal, generously organised with the support of the parents. This warm gathering provided an opportunity for pupils, teachers, and families to share food, strengthen friendships, and celebrate togetherness. More than simply a performing arts festival, Kindy Fest 2026 became a memorable learning experience that encouraged children to appreciate Indonesia’s rich cultural heritage, develop confidence, and experience the true spirit of community within the school environment.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

The Academic Graduation and Tahfiz Graduation Ceremony of Al Siddiq International Kindergarten pupils was held on Monday, 1 June 2026, at the Auditorium of Darma Persada University. The event marked a special milestone for all kindergarten pupils, particularly those in Kindergarten B, who had successfully completed their early years of education. It also served as a celebration for pupils who had completed the memorisation of the Holy Qur’an, specifically Juz 30 and Juz 29. The Academic Graduation Ceremony was organised to honour the achievements, learning journey, and personal development of the Kindergarten B pupils throughout their time at Al Siddiq International Kindergarten. More than simply marking the completion of their kindergarten education, the ceremony symbolised the children’s readiness to progress to primary school. Through this occasion, the pupils gained a greater appreciation of achievement, developed confidence in appearing before an audience, and felt proud of the efforts they had made throughout their learning journey. The benefits of the Academic Graduation Ceremony are significant for the Kindergarten B pupils. It provides them with a memorable experience that strengthens their self-confidence and encourages a lifelong enthusiasm for learning. For parents, the event offers an opportunity to witness their children’s growth in independence, social skills, and readiness to embark on the next stage of education. For the school, the ceremony reflects its commitment to supporting each child’s holistic development to the highest standard. Alongside the Academic Graduation, the event also featured the Tahfiz Graduation Ceremony for pupils who had successfully memorised Juz 30 and Juz 29. Six Kindergarten B pupils proudly participated in this special occasion: Reno, Nala, Shofiyyah, Sofia, Ameera, and Raisya. The Tahfiz Graduation aimed to recognise the children’s dedication and perseverance in memorising the Holy Qur’an from an early age. It also sought to nurture a deep love for the Qur’an, encourage children to remain closely connected to the words of Allah, and inspire them to preserve and continue expanding their memorisation. The programme commenced with an opening by the Master of Ceremonies, who guided the event with dignity and order. This was followed by the entrance procession of the graduates into the auditorium. It was a deeply moving and proud moment as the children walked confidently and gracefully before their teachers, parents, and distinguished guests. The ceremony then proceeded with the Academic Graduation. During this procession, the Kindergarten B pupils were presented with graduation medals and certificates in recognition of completing their kindergarten education. Each child was celebrated for the remarkable journey they had undertaken—from learning letters and numbers, building friendships, participating actively in classroom activities, to growing into more independent and confident individuals. Following the Academic Graduation, the Tahfiz Graduation Ceremony took place. Pupils who had successfully completed the memorisation of Juz 30 and Juz 29 received certificates as recognition of their outstanding achievement. The programme also featured a muraja’ah presentation, during which the pupils recited portions of the Qur’an they had memorised. Their performance demonstrated the results of their dedication, discipline, the guidance of their teachers, and the unwavering support of their parents at home. One of the most touching moments of the Tahfiz Graduation was the presentation of crowns to the parents. This meaningful tradition symbolised the invaluable role parents play in accompanying and encouraging their children throughout their Qur’anic memorisation journey. Through this heartfelt ceremony, the children learned that their success was not solely the result of their own efforts, but also the outcome of their parents’ prayers, encouragement, and unconditional love. With the successful completion of both the Academic Graduation and the Tahfiz Graduation Ceremony, it is hoped that the pupils of Al Siddiq International Kindergarten will continue to be inspired to pursue knowledge, embrace new challenges with confidence, and develop a lifelong love for the Holy Qur’an from an early age. More than a ceremonial event, this occasion will remain a treasured memory for the children, their parents, and the entire Al Siddiq International Kindergarten community.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

On Friday, 5 June 2026, the Kindergarten B students of Al Siddiq International took part in an enjoyable and creative numeracy lesson in the classroom. The activity was designed to help children recognise numbers and practise counting while working creatively with their classmates. Through engaging tasks, the children were able to learn in an active, enjoyable, and imaginative environment. The lesson began with the teacher reviewing the topic studied during the previous week, which was weather. The teacher then showed an educational video introducing different types of weather around the world, including sunny, rainy, snowy, and windy conditions. The children watched enthusiastically and eagerly shared their own experiences and knowledge about the various types of weather they had seen or learned about. Next, the teacher explained the activity and divided the children into eight groups, each consisting of two students. Ice lolly sticks and stones were distributed as the main materials for the project. Each group was asked to use their imagination to create one of the weather conditions they had learned about using the provided materials. The children began discussing ideas and working together to turn their concepts into simple creative artworks. The children produced a variety of interesting creations. One group arranged ice lolly sticks into the shape of a house and added small stones on top to represent snow, creating a snowy weather scene. Another group used stones to form a tree and arranged additional stones to resemble raindrops, representing rainy weather. Through this activity, the children not only strengthened their understanding of weather concepts but also developed their imagination, creativity, coordination skills, and ability to collaborate with their peers. After completing their artwork, the teacher provided each group with a sheet of paper. At this stage, one child was responsible for counting the number of ice lolly sticks and stones used, while their partner recorded the results. This activity helped the children develop sequential counting skills, understand number concepts, and practise teamwork when completing a task together. The children were enthusiastic as they counted and carefully checked that their totals were correct. The activity continued with a presentation session. Each group took turns presenting their artwork to the teacher and their classmates. They explained the type of weather they had created and stated the number of ice lolly sticks and stones used in their project. Through these presentations, the children developed self-confidence, communication skills, and the courage to express their ideas in front of others. The day’s learning activities provided many benefits for the children’s development. In addition to improving numeracy skills, the activities helped enhance creativity, imagination, motor coordination, teamwork, and communication abilities. By integrating learning with play and creative projects, the children found it easier to understand the concepts while thoroughly enjoying the learning process. The session concluded with the children working together to tidy up all the materials they had used, followed by a closing prayer before going home. The day ended in a calm, orderly, and enjoyable atmosphere, filled with enthusiasm for learning.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd
