International Friendship Day 2026

6 April 2026

See how our school marked International Friendship Day 2026 through activities that brought ASEAN cultures to life and built stronger bonds among students.

The theme for International Friendship Day, Forging Friendships in a Complex World, encourages students to take initiative in building meaningful connections and to appreciate diverse cultures and perspectives. Through these experiences, students develop the understanding and skills needed to contribute to a cohesive and globally connected society.

In line with this theme, our school organised a range of activities that provided students with engaging and meaningful opportunities to deepen their understanding of Singapore’s connections with other countries and to strengthen friendships within the school community.
