Chinese New Year Celebration

In a joyous celebration of the Chinese New Year, PENABUR Banda Secondary School buzzed with activity on February 19th, 2024. The air was filled with excitement as students from all four houses came together for a series of events. From the delightful aroma of freshly cooked jiaozi and noodles to the joy of singing Chinese songs, the school was transformed into a vibrant cultural hub. The spirit of competition was alive as students collaborated to decorate their booths and participated in a thrilling angpao hunt. Throughout the day, students reveled in the traditions and immersed themselves in the rich cultural tapestry of the event, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Alumni Talk 2024

On February 16, 2024, an engaging online alumni talk brought together Chin Han from National Taiwan University, Joey from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Inez from the University of Glasgow, and Darren from ITB. This event, aimed at current secondary school students, offered valuable insights and advice from individuals who have successfully pursued higher education across the globe.

The alumni panelists shared their personal experiences, highlighting both the joys and challenges of studying abroad. They also discussed the skills and knowledge they believe are crucial for students to develop during their secondary education to prepare them for future academic success. The event offered a unique opportunity for current students to gain valuable perspectives and guidance as they navigate their own educational journeys.

IGCSE Art and Design

We now offer IGCSE Art and Design starting in 2022/2023 as one of the IGCSE subject choice.  Quoted from the syllabus: "Learners gain confidence and enthusiasm as they develop technical skills in two and three dimensional form and composition, and are able to identify and solve problems in visual and tactile forms. They also learn how to develop ideas from initial attempts to final solutions. An ideal foundation for further study, Cambridge IGCSE Art & Design also develops a greater awareness of the role played by the visual arts in society and in history, broadening cultural horizons and individual experience."
