Students have the opportunity to participate in these invaluable learning experiences that may discover new passions and interests but also develop life skills, confidence and friendships. Regional travel for sporting events and cultural conventions are incorporated into the curriculum with parents being invited to watch children showcase their learning in live performances and tournaments.
The co-curricular program at ISKL complements our holistic education in supporting students to explore their passions and interests, achieve their goals, and better understand themselves. Essentially, we provide a world of opportunities for your child.
Participation in activities is an integral component of school life at ISKL. Beyond the academic curriculum, our students learn collaboration, camaraderie, and commitment through varied activities such as debate, STEM, athletics, and sports.
These attributes are developed and practiced by students of every age, every week on the track and trail, court and studio, and pitch and pool. The activities build camaraderie, promote competition between friends, and encourage others to try a range of activities.
ISKL’s school mascot, Panther, is a symbol of comradery at all sporting events cheering on students, faculty and staff members. Its namesake is taken for all field sporting teams, known as ISKL Panthers and swim team Aqua Panthers.
Throughout the year, competitions in local and regional events enable students to connect with other local schools. ISKL is also a participating member of The Association of International Malaysian Schools (AIMS), The Interscholastic Association of Southeast Asia Schools (IASAS) and The High School Athletic Program competing at Varsity level at the IASAS Conference.
Creativity is central to our student’s development, and we offer a wide range of opportunities embedded within our curriculum and co-curricular activities. These are critical components in enabling all our students to experiment in a nurturing environment while encouraging them to discover new interests.
ISKL views the Arts as central to a student’s development of cognitive and artistic skills. Each grade level student from Early Childhood through to High School are encouraged to become enquirers and experimenters in a nurturing creative environment. They are provided with a rich range of opportunities, both embedded into the curriculum and available after school, that enables them to explore and discover a variety of creative exploits.
The Fine, Performing, Visual Arts and Theater departments unite to promote a community of creative and artistic expression. Students are inspired to actively participate in a comprehensive range of performances and events that are showcased to an audience in ISKL’s Performing Arts Centre. As well as the 600+ seat capacity Robert B. Gaw Theatre, the Dr. Norma J. Hudson Amphitheatre and the 345-retractable seat, black box style Melawati Theatre, ISKL also houses dance, visual and digital art studios. Students’ self expression and confidence is grown through exhibiting talent shows, musicals, youth orchestras and jazz nights.

The opportunities to learn outside the classroom are invaluable in supporting your child to be all they are – whether digging deep and achieving a personal best on the climbing wall, playing a fun game of four square with friends, or making new connections at a sporting tournament. These experiences are so important in helping our students discover new passions and interests and develop lifelong skills. They also create memories that last forever.
Although it is not compulsory, all students are actively encouraged to explore and develop new skills, interests, and passions by getting involved in after-school activities. Students have the opportunity to participate in these invaluable learning experiences. Beyond athletics, humanities, arts, STEM, language, and culture, wellness, advocacy, community partnerships, and sustainability clubs, ISKL’s co-curricular program bring a kaleidoscope of memories for your child.
There is perhaps no greater catalyst for empowering students than providing them with opportunities to thrive into global citizens. The co-curricular program helps cultivate critical skills such as flexibility, resilience, the ability to think critically, take care of the well-being of oneself and others, and look at the world from the perspective of others that is not only beneficial in terms of education, but also beyond the classroom.
We offer different types of co-curricular activities for our students including sports, performance, art, music, Model United Nations (MUN), debate, and clubs covering every topic from animal rescue to robotics. We also provide cultural enrichment experiences and travel throughout the region for service learning, sporting tournaments, and cultural conventions.
