“Cipta dengan Kreativiti, Hayati Identiti Malaysia!”
让波中学子以青春与创意，写下属于自己的马来西亚故事。
Celebrating Malaysia Through Creativity and Expression
In conjunction with the celebration of Hari Kebangsaan and Hari Malaysia, school organised a series of Malaysia-themed activities, providing students with opportunities to express their creativity, strengthen their communication skills and explore what Malaysia means to them.
One of the highlights was the Malaysia Model Creation Exhibition, held on 21 September at the Open Hall. Students transformed their ideas of Malaysia into creative three-dimensional models, incorporating national landmarks, architecture, cultural elements and other distinctive features of the country.
Through designing and constructing their models, students demonstrated not only creativity and imagination, but also hands-on skills, teamwork and their understanding of Malaysia’s diverse cultural identity.
The celebration also featured the Pertandingan Deklamasi Sajak Bertemakan Kemerdekaan, a Merdeka-themed poetry recitation competition held on 10 September. Open to students from Junior 1 to Senior 1, the competition provided a platform for students to express their thoughts and feelings about independence, Malaysia and peace through poetry, voice and performance.
From visual art to spoken expression, these activities allowed students to celebrate Malaysia in different ways. More importantly, they encouraged students to learn about national identity while developing confidence, creativity and communication skills.
Special appreciation goes to Ms. Meetrra and BM teachers for their dedicated guidance and encouragement throughout the activities. They support helped students develop their ideas, step out of their comfort zones and confidently showcase their talents.
Creativity is the language of youth; culture is our shared memory; and Malaysia is our shared home.
“Cipta dengan Kreativiti, Hayati Identiti Malaysia!”
Through creativity and youthful expression, our students continue to write their own Malaysian stories.
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.
