SJAS proudly announces the opening of the third building which has been long waited for.
The building is of 4 floors containing 45 air conditioned classrooms, 3 Science laboratories, 3 Computer laboratories, 2 Music rooms, and 2 Art rooms. Shaded area 600 m and playground area 2000 m. All classrooms are equipped with interactive projectors.
Our highlighted improvement this year is integrating technology inside the classrooms as instructional resources and learning tools. With the implementation of new curriculum in the younger ages, starting Kindergarten till Grade 4 in the English Language and till Grade 9 in Mathematics, our main concern is how to benefit our children with learning opportunities that helps them develop critical thinking skills and engages them in classroom collaboration, self-reflection, and self-evaluation.
In September 2015/2016 : Elementary & Middle School students experienced a noticeable transformation in the accommodation of their facility. The building was renovated completely, provided with projectors and air conditions in every classroom, two Computer labs, two Science labs, and one Library. Students sense the warm welcoming family spirit all around together with the sense of responsibility, commitment, encouragement, and tolerance.
A spelling bee is a competition in which contestants are asked to spell a broad selection of words, usually with a varying degree of difficulty. The concept is thought to have originated in the United States, and spelling bee events, along with variants, are now also held in some other countries around the world.

Impressive performances are being held on several occasions during the year to share the outcome enjoyment.
