Building Ourselves Through the 7 Habits | SMCHPD Welcomes the 7 Habits Review Team and Showcases Self-Leadership
17 September 2026 | Port Dickson Chinese Independent High School
“Welcome to SMCHPD!” With warm greetings and bright smiles, the students and staff of Port Dickson Chinese Independent High School enthusiastically welcomed Miss Brooke, Reviewer from the 7 Habits Headquarters in the United States; Dr. Murthy, the Malaysian Reviewer; and Madam Saras, the school’s 7 Habits coach, who visited the school on 17 September 2026 for a review.
The review began with a student-led assembly. Student representatives delivered speeches, followed by a 24-Festival Drums performance and a Choral Speaking presentation by Class J2Zhi, themed “Unity, Synergy and Harmony.” The activities showcased students’ initiative, confidence in expressing themselves and ability to work collaboratively.
The review team then toured the school and engaged students in sharing sessions and interviews on their *Leadership Notebooks, as well as interacting with the *Student Lighthouse Team. The team also visited classrooms to observe students’ learning experiences.
From students taking initiative to teachers providing guidance pand support, from classroom learning to meaningful interactions, the school community demonstrated the essence of self-leadership advocated by the 7 Habits — learning to lead oneself, take responsibility, communicate proactively and grow together through collaboration.
The review was not merely an assessment, but also an opportunity for sincere exchange and learning. Through their warm welcome and genuine engagement, the students and staff of SMCHPD demonstrated that the 7 Habits are more than ideas or principles; they are daily choices put into action, helping every individual become a better version of themselves.
