Alongside their qualifications and experiences, Surabaya European School’s teachers have the qualities needed to support and inspire students in a high performing international school. These include enthusiasm, independence, resilience, adaptability and a sense of humour. From Montessori school, Primary School and Secondary school these characteristics all contribute to the caring, supportive environment and community that encourages each students to explore and develop their potential in their own way.
Educating Global Citizens
Our consistent focus for students is on high academic standards, essential life skills and a sense of responsibility to the community all within the framework of a ‘family like’ atmosphere. We also ensure that each student receives the educational support they need while being challenged to extend themselves according to their individual potential.
As an international school we pride ourselves on the family atmosphere and culturally diverse community we have created here in Surabaya. We make a conscious effort to hold events that offer our community the opportunity to come together in wide range of sporting, artistic, intellectual and cultural activities. In addition to cultivating a sense of belonging, this allows our students to explore their creativity and imagination and gain confidence in expressing themselves.

It was another fascinating session in the chemistry lab for our secondary students, exploring the building blocks of our universe. The lesson delved into the intricate structure of the Periodic Table, turning what can be a daunting chart into a logical puzzle.
A brilliant, insightful question from a student about the ‘gaps’ between element groups sparked a fantastic discussion about chemical properties and patterns. To put theory into practice, a student was then invited to the interactive whiteboard to draw the electron shell configuration of an atom. By actively engaging with these complex concepts, our students develop a much deeper and more memorable understanding of science.

Our primary students had a brilliant time diving deep into the nuances of storytelling during their English lesson.
Together, they are learning how to analyse a narrative by identifying its core components: the characters, setting, plot, problem, and solution. Through these engaging class discussions, students strengthen not only their reading comprehension but also their critical thinking and inferential skills.
Thoughtful contributions from the students showed a real understanding of the narrative’s key events. It was fantastic to see them actively participating and sharing their insights on the characters and events.

Curiosity was in full bloom during our White Roses experiment! 🌸
Our students observed how white roses absorb coloured water — discovering how plants transport nutrients through their stems. 💧 Working together, they predicted which colours might appear on each petal, showing great teamwork and focus. 🎨 As they watched the changes unfold, their excitement grew with every new shade that appeared. 🌈
Through this hands-on activity, they not only learned about science but also about collaboration and patience. It’s wonderful to see curiosity blossom into understanding — one petal at a time! 🌼
