We are truly blessed and deeply grateful for the opportunity to develop an international trip program to Malaysia for our Year 10 students this year. 21 students travelled to City of Ipoh, Kuala Kangsar, Pangkor Island in Perak and Putrajaya, Kuala Lumpur from 17th June to 28th June 2026.
We are pleased to share the highlights and reflections from the trip, Journey of Adaab, which provided our students with an unforgettable learning experience beyond the classroom. Designed with a strong educational and values-based purpose, the trip aimed to nurture gratitude, resilience, faith in action, cultural awareness, and a service mindset in our young people.
Throughout the journey, students had the opportunity to engage with new environments, different communities, and meaningful experiences that challenged them to grow in confidence and character. They demonstrated resilience by adapting to unfamiliar settings, showing patience, and working together with maturity and responsibility. Their ability to embrace challenges with a positive attitude was a credit to themselves, their families, and the school community.
A key highlight of the trip was the opportunity for students to see faith in action. Through visits, reflections, and interactions, they were able to connect their values to real-life experiences and witness how Islam is lived with sincerity, compassion, and purpose in different contexts. This strengthened their understanding of adab, akhlaq, and amanah as lived principles, not just words.
The trip also deepened students’ cultural awareness, broadening their perspectives and helping them appreciate the richness of different cultures, traditions, and ways of life. They gained a greater understanding of the wider world and recognised the importance of respect, humility, and open-mindedness when engaging with others.
Equally important was the development of a service mindset. Students were inspired by the generosity, hospitality, and dedication of the people they met, and they reflected on the importance of contributing positively to their own families, school, and communities. The experience encouraged them to think beyond themselves and consider how they can serve others with gratitude and responsibility.
The outcomes of this journey were profound: Students returned with a stronger sense of purpose, increased self-awareness, and a deeper appreciation of their faith, identity, and responsibilities. The Journey of Adaab was more than a trip; it was a meaningful opportunity for growth, transformation, and lifelong learning.
We extend our sincere heartfelt appreciation to Ms Nani Mior Azlan, Mr Mohamad Mayet (Planning Team) and the School Founders, staff, families, Malaysia hosts and partners who made this journey possible. Their support, trust, and collaboration helped create an experience that will be remembered fondly by our students and all who took part.
