Dear Parents, Caregivers and Students,
As summarized in our Mission Statement, ACG School Jakarta is a diverse community of learners who are open-minded, responsible and caring. We inquire into the world around us through academic programmes that aim to prepare students for life’s opportunities. With an understanding of and respect for others and the environment, we actively strive to make a difference, locally and globally.
The month of April saw our Y6 students busy with their PYP Exhibition Unit of Inquiry under the Transdisciplinary Theme of Sharing the Planet, following the caring guidance of their mentors from the school community. Our school community was proud to see the culmination of our Year 6 students’ inquiry into issues that underpin the United Nations Global Goals, in their PYP Exhibition. We hope and expect they will continue throughout their lives to actively question the status quo, seek solutions and preventative measures for existing and foreseeable problems, to make ours a better world.
Our Academic Leadership Team interviewed candidates for 2023-2024 Head Students. It was very difficult for the ALT to choose a headgirl and a headboy, as all candidates spoke with confidence and showed a deep understanding of what leadership is about. In their applications and interviews, aspiring young leaders gave examples of how they display capabilities and traits such as :
• Leadership
• Delegating and taking on extra responsibilities
• Strategical problem solving
• Perseverance
• Setting high standards
• Effective communication
• Teamwork
• Inclusivity and open mindedness
