The Music Showcase at Surabaya European School was a beautiful celebration of young talent and artistic expression. Every child brought their own spark to the stage, and it truly showed in the close-up moments, bright eyes, wide smiles, and voices full of heart. From the very first note, you could feel the joy and energy radiating through the room. These performances weren’t just about singing perfectly — they were about courage, confidence, and connection.

The children sang with such sincerity, showing just how much they’ve grown in both skill and spirit. You could see the pride in their faces as they stood tall and sang their hearts out. A heartfelt congratulations to every young star who made this showcase so memorable!

At Surabaya European School, we believe that fostering a love for nature starts from the earliest years. In our classrooms, even our youngest learners take part in nurturing plants with care and curiosity. This hands-on activity not only builds responsibility but also encourages mindfulness and respect for living things. As they gently water leaves and observe new growth, children learn valuable life skills through natural discovery.

Plant care becomes a quiet moment of connection with the environment, right within the classroom. It’s a simple yet powerful way to promote awareness from a young age. These small acts help our students grow into thoughtful, caring global citizens. We’re proud to integrate eco-conscious habits into daily learning experiences. 🌱💧
