Overseas Learning Journey 2024: Johore-Malacca, Malaysia

Our school recently organized an enriching two-day, one-night educational expedition to Malaysia, with two separate groups experiencing the journey. A total of 127 students and 20 staff members participated in this carefully planned adventure through Johore and Malacca City.

The itinerary included visits to:

Historic landmarks in Malacca City
UK Farm in Kluang, Johor, where students engaged in hands-on farming activities
Partner schools, where we received warm hospitality from our Malaysian hosts

Throughout the journey, students developed essential life skills including:

Cross-cultural communication
Teamwork
Problem-solving abilities

The experience fostered strong bonds among peers and created lasting memories for all participants. This educational expedition, months in the planning, proved to be an invaluable opportunity for both personal growth and cultural understanding.
