Thank you very much to our dedicated students who worked relentlessly on their projects, our teachers whose unwavering support made it all possible, and our parents whose encouragement fuelled their children's success.

Pride ISM EYFS: Hands-on Learning at the Dairy Farm

On 19th February 2026, our Pride ISM EYFS KG students visited Arr Mann dairy farm for an exciting and meaningful learning experience. They learned how milk is collected from cows and how farmers take good care of them by feeding them properly every day.
This hands-on experience at the farm helped them understand the importance of caring for farm animals with kindness and responsibility.

They also observed the milking process and learned how farmers carefully collect fresh milk in a clean and hygienic way. In addition, the children learned how the milk is cleaned, treated, and packed before being sent to the markets.

At the end of the visit, the children were treated with fresh milk, snacks, and sweets. They were very excited, happy and full of joy throughout the trip. This dairy farm visit was a fun, educational, and memorable trip that gave beautiful real-life learning experiences for our children.

🇲🇲 Union Day Celebration at Pride ISM Primary School 🇲🇲

Our Pride ISM Primary School proudly celebrated Myanmar Union Day on Wednesday, 11th February 2026.

Union Day invites us to pause, remember, and reflect on the shared values that connect different communities, languages, and traditions into one strong and living union. The programme featured traditional songs, dances and meaningful presentations about the significance of Union Day. Through these activities, students gained a deeper understanding of the importance of unity, respect, and harmony. It was also truly inspiring to see our students and teachers dressed in beautiful traditional attire, proudly showcasing Myanmar’s rich cultural heritage.

It was truly a day filled with pride, joy, unity, and celebration for our entire school community! 🌟

Pride ISM EYFS: Learning Adventures at the Zoo!

On 9th and 10th February 2026, our enthusiastic young explorers from Pre-Nursery and Nursery enjoyed a delightful and enriching educational adventure at the zoo.

Zoo visits provide meaningful learning opportunities for our young children. Seeing animals up close helps them build a natural curiosity and a growing appreciation for the amazing variety of living things around them, while gently introducing the idea of caring for animals and protecting nature. The adventure became even more exciting with a cheerful buggy ride, allowing the children to explore different animal zones in a fun, relaxed and joyful way.

Throughout the visit, children learned about various animal species, including their behaviours, habitats and diets. By learning through hands-on experiences, our students develop their curiosity about the world around them and became more connected to nature!

Pride ISM Talent Show 2026

On 30 January 2026, we proudly held our annual Secondary School Talent Show. The event was a vibrant celebration of creativity and confidence, showcasing a wide range of outstanding student performances.

Our talented students impressed the audience with musical instrument performances, singing, beatboxing, dancing, and stand-up comedy. We were especially delighted to see students honour Myanmar culture through the beautiful Myanmar Puppet Dance and traditional shows, reflecting both cultural pride and artistic expression.

The audience was truly amazed by exceptional performances such as blindfolded piano playing and powerful beatboxing, which left everyone in awe. Our musicians, singers, and dancers delivered remarkable performances, each bringing their own unique charm and talent. Together, they made the event a true celebration of student ability and passion.

In addition to the talent show, we also celebrated the winners of our Art Competition, recognising the outstanding creativity and artistic expression of our students.

Congratulations to all the prize winners and everyone who participated, supported, and made this event a huge success!

We would also like to extend our sincere appreciation to our esteemed judges. Their keen eye for talent, fair judgement, and encouraging feedback played a vital role in making this event truly memorable. Thank you for supporting and inspiring our young performers and for being part of this incredible celebration of talent.

We successfully conducted our Fire Drill on Friday, 23rd January 2025. The drill was effective, with students, teachers, and staff demonstrating discipline, calmness, and cooperation throughout the process. Everyone evacuated promptly and reached the designated assembly point within minutes, reflecting the effectiveness of our safety procedures.

Raising awareness of safety plans in all situations and locations is essential for everyone. Safety is a core value at our school and, thus, we regularly train our students, teachers, and staff to respond calmly and appropriately during emergencies.

Together, we will continue to maintain a safe and secure environment for our entire school community.

We are delighted to celebrate exceptional achievements by our students at Pride ISM (Yangon & Mandalay). Five outstanding learners have been honoured with the Outstanding Cambridge Learner Awards, recognising their remarkable performance in the June 2025 Cambridge IGCSE examination series.
