They took great pride in their performances, with amazing supports and applauses from parents, teachers, and their friends.

Not stopping at dance performances, the Primary Years students actually learnt to perform traditional dances! Two parents, who are skilled in dancing, stepped forward to give a special lesson of traditional dances for the students. They enthusiastically followed as the parents on stage perform movements that they could easily copy.

The Early Years students were not to be outdone. They participated in an adorable fashion show for traditional outfits. Displaying colorful, diverse outfits from various Indonesian provinces, the students put on an unforgettable show.

Finally, no Indonesian culture-related events are complete without the obligatory Independence Day games! Known as Lomba 17-an, these games are popular across Indonesia and bring communities together. Students participated in flag racing, cracker-eating contest, tug of war, and more.
