Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) 

What is the main theme and objectives of SPH Summer Program 2026?

The main theme of SPH Summer Program 2026 is “Made to Shine.” This theme was based on a guiding Bible Verse from John 8:12 (ESV), “Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness but will have the light of life.”

This year’s theme centers on our calling to shine for Christ—the true Light of the world. Through this, we seek to restore students’ confidence and identity as God’s children, created in His image to walk in truth and reflect His light through their lives and good works. We hope each student will enjoy their time at SPH Summer while discovering the unique workmanship God has placed within them, growing in confidence to shine brightly for His glory as they explore their talents and passions.

With a Christian worldview and in line with SPH’s vision (True Knowledge, Faith in Christ, and Godly Character), SPH Summer 2026 is designed to encourage students to shine for Christ as they grow in confidence and identity as God’s children.

· Students experience holistic learning in a fun and meaningful way, discovering their God-given potential and learning to reflect His light in all they do.

· Through engaging, play-based activities, students develop academic, STEM, sports, creative arts and culinary skills—guided by SPH teachers and highly qualified Christian educators from Indonesia and abroad.

· This year, US Christian college teachers (native speakers) will be teaching at SPH Lippo Village and Sentul City, enriching the program with global perspectives and Christ-centered mentorship.

· Students broaden their horizons through a Christ-centered educational experience, building meaningful friendships and lasting memories while growing in their calling to shine for Christ among their peers and communities.
