Malaysia is a nation that prides itself on its vibrant tapestry of cultures—Malay, Chinese, Indian, and indigenous groups living side by side. This unique multiculturalism does not stay at the school gate.

Curriculum
Afternoon: Co-Curricular Activities (CCA): School doesn’t end when the bell rings. CCA is compulsory and graded (contributing 10% to the final co-curricular score for university applications). Students choose from uniformed bodies (Scouts, Red Crescent Society, Puteri Islam), clubs (Robotics, Debating, Bahasa Club), or sports (badminton, sepak takraw, football). Practice runs from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM, often under a blazing sun.
