Celebrating 20 Years of SDH Makassar
22-May-2023
Sekolah Dian Harapan Makassar has just celebrated the school’s 20 years of operation in the academic year of 2022/2023.
SDH Makassar’s journey commenced in March 2003 in Tanjung Bunga, Makassar. The school has grown exponentially during the past 20 years to the point of having a student body of 1.200 students by now. SDH Makassar is also blessed with a participative and solid parents community that radiates a positive sense of ownership towards the school.
During the academic year of 2022/2023, SDH Makassar organized a total of twenty events as part of the celebration. The events include national seminars, family days, mission service learnings, and bazaars. The pinnacle of the event series was celebrated with a worship service, in which Ibu Stephanie Riady as the Executive Director of YPPH, as well as Bapak Deny Kiswanto Sinaga as the School System Coordinator of SDH and SLH, were present.
As the next step of the school’s innovations, SDH Makassar launched a new initiative that emerged from the consistent number of parents in Makassar who send their children to study abroad. To answer the parents’ longing for an education of international standard, SDH Makassar implements the Cambridge curriculum in the first grade of both elementary school and middle school starting in the 2022/2023 academic year. The initiative was made possible with the school’s collaboration with SPH Kemang in the form of teacher training, material development, up to the launch of the curriculum. It is expected in the future that SDH Makassar can still provide quality education based on Biblical values to the young generations of Makassar.
