Cross-border exchange enriches student learning

A delegation of 15 Years 4 and 5 students from Amar Pahlawan Primary School along with three teachers left the country yesterday for a five-day educational visit to Yangzheng Primary School in Singapore until August 6, 2026.

Coordinated by the Ministry of Education (MoE) through the Department of Schools, the school twinning programme aims to strengthen bilateral relations between schools from Brunei Darussalam and Singapore through the exchange of best practices in academics, pedagogy and holistic student development.

The activities include joint classroom learning sessions, student leadership initiatives, and hands-on experiences involving a variety of learning approaches. The delegation will also participate in educational visits to cultural and sustainability-themed landmarks, as well as take part in cultural exchange activities involving both schools.

The students are expected to gain exposure to international education systems while fostering the spirit of friendship, unity and universal values that transcend national borders. The participants will have the opportunity to showcase the identity and cultural heritage of Brunei Darussalam through performances and interactions with their Singaporean peers.

Acting Director of Schools, Department of Schools, MoE Dr Eddy Fazlin bin Haji Amdan was present at the Brunei International Airport to bid farewell to the delegation. – Lyna Mohamad
