Just like its slogan, 'the candied crescendos,' FORTALS 2024: Dulcero has given me so many sweet memories and gifts. As we know, FORTALS is the Festival of Arts of Global Prestasi School, an annual art event organized by Global Prestasi High School, featuring exciting themes and well-known musicians from Indonesia. This year, my fellow committee members and I were thrilled to be entrusted with continuing this 14-year tradition.
Carrying the theme "Realizing an Independent and Creative Young Generation", this activity was packed with fun and educational activities aimed at training adaptation, independence, and fostering leadership and a sense of community among students.
By interacting with their environment and taking part in a variety of activities, children can enhance their literacy skills and grow holistically. The main objective is to make sure that kids are exposed to public spaces in ways that are creative, engaging, and suitable for their developmental stage.
From May 6-8, 2024, 14 students from Gwangyang Middle School (GMS) participated in a student exchange program with Global Prestasi School (GPS). The GMS students stayed with the families of GPS students to experience life in Indonesian households.
This year, students from Global Prestasi School had the opportunity to participate in an International Immersion to Japan. The immersion program lasted for approximately 9 days, from April 20 to April 28, 2024. The goal of this program was to introduce Global Prestasi High School students to the opportunities for further studies abroad, especially in Japan, known for its technological advancements. Additionally, students had the chance to learn directly from their Japanese peers.
A three-day journey aimed at training and building their character, taking them through a series of activities that stimulate independence, creativity, teamwork, and communication skills.
