KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA –
Media OutReach Newswire – 7 August 2025 – At Wesley Methodist School Kuala Lumpur (International) (WMSKLI), Unity Day is not just a celebration, it is a bold reflection of what the school truly stands for: unity, respect, and a deep-rooted pride in Malaysia’s heritage.
The thunderous rhythm of the 24 Festive Drums echoed across, uniting the crowd in awe. A powerful display of tradition, teamwork, and Malaysian spirit.
This year’s Unity Day was a vibrant showcase of Malaysia’s multicultural richness, brought to life through traditional attire, cultural performances, interactive booths, and nostalgic games. Students, teachers, and guests from all walks of life came together, not just to enjoy the celebration, but to honour what it means to be Malaysian.
While WMSKLI delivers the globally recognised Cambridge IGCSE curriculum, the school remains intentionally grounded in Malaysian values. What makes WMSKLI unique is its deliberate commitment to instil national pride, even among students pursuing international education.
In a purposeful initiative, WMSKLI encourages its Year 11 students to take the SPM
Bahasa Malaysia and
Sejarah (History) papers. This effort is not merely academic and preparing them to be highly employable in Malaysia, but it is also about giving students a deeper understanding of their cultural roots, national language, and the historical journey that shaped the modern Malaysia.
Unity Day is more than a day of celebration. It is a mirror of WMSKLI’s intentional fostering of unity amidst diversity. Through shared experiences: be it food, dance, language, or heritage, students are taught to celebrate differences and find strength in common ground.
From the chants of dikir barat to the beat of kompang, from colourful baju kurung to traditional Indian dances, Unity Day served as a powerful reminder: while our cultures may differ, the spirit of unity binds us all.
Our students paid tribute to Sabah’s rich heritage with a captivating dance, celebrating the beauty of East Malaysia’s traditions.
In today’s fast-paced global landscape, WMSKLI stands out as a school that educates not only for success, but for significance. Here, students are nurtured to lead with empathy, grounded in their heritage, and respectful of others.
Unity Day beautifully captured this vision. It reminded everyone that being truly international does not mean leaving behind one’s roots. At WMSKLI, it means embracing them and using them to shape a more connected, compassionate world.
Students & teachers took to the stage to deliver a moving poetry recital—honouring Malaysia’s journey and reminding us all of the power of words to inspire unity.
