Dear friends and esteemed members of the community,

 

I’m truly humbled and grateful to lead the incredible UUM International School Melaka (UUMISM). It is an honor beyond words to work hand in hand with our beloved students, parents, and dedicated staff as we strive to make UUMISM the shining star among international schools in Melaka.

 

Our school is registered with Cambridge, offering a truly unique curriculum that marries academics (IGCSE/A levels) with the beautiful sport of golf. It is with heartfelt enthusiasm that we present our 3-branched program, allowing students to explore their passions fully. They may choose a wholly academic path or embrace the joy of golf as an enriching extracurricular activity. Additionally, for those with dreams of becoming professional golfers, we provide specialised training to support their aspirations.

 

Settled in the serene embrace of Ayer Keroh Country Club (AKCC), our school creates a warm and nurturing atmosphere. Our team of highly qualified and experienced teachers provides a supportive environment where students can flourish academically and embrace the joy of golf.

 

At UUMISM we foster an understanding of human values such as love, respect, trust, self-esteem, and responsibility. We aim for academic excellence with the understanding that all children have different abilities, skills, and interests. As you contemplate becoming part of our school community, we extend our sincere and humble welcome. We eagerly await the opportunity to embark on this remarkable journey together, fostering a spirit of growth and learning within each student.

 

Thank you for considering UUMISM as your educational home. We are sincerely grateful for your interest and look forward to the privilege of welcoming you and your family with open hearts to our wonderful school community.
