We are very proud of the POWIIS Project which is the flagship of our global citizenship education curriculum. The motto is ‘Be the change, make a difference’ and our students are fully embracing this. We have a range of 25+ projects, working with various organisations from around Penang, such as the Habitat Foundation, CEMACS, Kechara Soup Kitchen and many more. Taking part in these projects teaches students about the UN Sustainable Development goals, as well as valuable skills for the future such as teamwork.

All students select a project and will spend every Friday afternoon taking part in it. They may travel off campus to undertake service education; this could be beach cleaning, tree planting or turtle spotting. Students who stay in school also have a huge selection of activities, such as designing and planting our very own community garden or recycling household waste for the local residents.
