MESSAGE FROM
THE DIRECTOR OF STUDIES
A year has passed by and I’m back again to share my
views and for that I appreciate the opportunity
given. Hello every one!
First and foremost, a big “thank you” to the teachers who
tirelessly guided, coached and motivated the students
who then worked hard to attain good results in PMR,
SPM and IGCSE for the year 2010. Their improved
achievements not only brought cheer to themselves but
their parents and staff as well. Their success was due to
the close cooperation, understanding and commitment
among students, parents and teachers. It is therefore my
earnest hope that all students especially those sitting for
the public examinations this year will learn from these
ex-Highlanders that only when you work hard and
cooperate with everyone, success will be yours.
Remember, “There are no gains without pains”.
I am sure you are aware that each and every one of you is
unique with your own experiences, backgrounds, beliefs,
ideas and potential. So, go ahead Explore, Enrich and
Excel. Uphold the motto of your school. Here in a safe
and familiar environment of a home away from home,
you are encouraged and motivated to search and look for
your strengths. In your quest to explore, make your life
here enriching and meaningful by engaging in a variety
of activities that have been lined up. Make it so beautiful
that you will always remember and cherish your school
life here. In the process of enriching your life, strive for
excellence. Push yourself to bring out only the best in
you which is easily attainable with the warm and loving
care and attention showered.
To become successful Highlanders and future leaders,
ample opportunities are here to help you develop your
potential which is the vision of our school, “We nurture
individuals to realize their potential”. With guidance
and motivation, you tap into your inner talents and
creativity. Everyone’s achievement, no matter how
small is appreciated and you are encouraged to grow your
potential. With much confidence and patience, there is no
doubt you will scale even greater heights of success in this
caring and family atmosphere.
No effort is spared to create and foster a stimulating
environment to accomplish the mission of your school
which is to have a balanced, all-round education in a
culture of quality, nurturance and teamwork. As
boarders, you learn to manage your own time, take care of
your personal needs and make independent decisions.
Hence, you grow in maturity. Not only academic
excellence is emphasized, ethical and moral values are
inculcated. It is here that networking begins and lasting
friendships are formed based on respect, loyalty, tolerance
and courtesy. You learn to live and work together
harmoniously. Thinking, planning, decisions and actions
are better when done as a team. Keep reminding yourself-
be the best among the best whatever you are. Give your
maximum effort and contribute positively to the progress
of this school and bring with it fame and glory.
Yes, Highlanders Boleh!. Wishing you happiness and good
health always.
