🌍✨ That’s a wrap on the 2nd Annual Bukit Merah Model United Nations (BMMUN 2026)!

More than forty passionate student delegates came together to tackle one of the world's most complex geopolitical challenges: the US-Iran conflict. Through rigorous debate, strategic negotiation and thoughtful collaboration, these young leaders navigated differing perspectives and successfully drafted a comprehensive resolution aimed at promoting peace and stability. 🕊️🤝

Beyond the final accord, BMMUN 2026 provided valuable opportunities for students to sharpen their critical and analytical thinking, particularly when responding to questions and challenges raised at the Chair’s discretion. Delegates also strengthened their diplomatic communication skills through dynamic discussions and negotiations during unmoderated caucuses. 🗣️✨

Congratulations to all our delegates for demonstrating confidence, resilience and the true spirit of global citizenship. 👏

Our Secondary 3 students had an enriching time exploring skills-based professions through this year's Applied Learning Modules! Across the four exciting modules of Automotive Engineering 🛞, AI Filmmaking 🎥, Culinary and Mocktail 🍝🍹, and Sports and Wellness 🥎, the students dived into hands-on experiences that broadened their horizons and sparked new interests. 🤓😊

As part of the programme, students also embarked on learning journeys to witness how the skills were applied in the real world.🤔 For many students, these visits were a true eye-opener 😳, bringing their classroom experiences to life in a meaningful and authentic way. 👍

The highlight of the programme was the students' showcase, where they presented their own films, served a delightful spread of dishes and mocktails for teachers, demonstrated teamwork in automotive presentations, and designed sports activities that tested agility and cognitive skills.👏🙌

Beyond the fun, these experiences supported the students' holistic development, nurturing critical thinking and a deeper understanding of the world of work and their role in society.💗😊

Well done to all our Secondary 3s for your enthusiastic participation and creativity! 👏

From 6–8 April, our Secondary 4 and 5 Merahans experienced an enriching GROW Week 🌱 that brought learning beyond the classroom.

Grow Week for the Secondary 3 Merahans was truly an unforgettable experience 🏕️🌄✨

From conquering the high elements and pushing through long hikes to rafting together as a team 🧗‍♂️🥾🚣‍♀️, every activity was filled with adventure and excitement. We laughed through the tough moments 😆, cheered one another on at every height 🙌, and even campfire night became a highlight we will not forget🔥.

It was especially meaningful to witness everyone stepping out of their comfort zones and supporting one another, building trust and resilience along the way 🤝💪. It is amazing how just a few days away from everything can bring you closer to the people who matter. Camping with friends is not just a trip—it is a collection of unforgettable “we actually did that” moments
🏆🥹.

Experiences like these remind us that learning goes beyond textbooks; it is about growth, character, and discovering one’s potential 💎🌱 These are memories we will carry with us for a long time.
