In ping pong CCA I have learnt how to relax my muscles. Ping Pong CCA allowed me to learn patience, how to hit a ball, and new skills. Ping Pong CCA allowed me to flow with the ball, and the true meaning of Ping Pong. Ping Pong isn’t just a ping and a pong but something much more fun. I also learnt how to be patient with kids

I find that the students are very creative and outspoken. The school are more flexible to allow students speak out. I also that they have many international students, and they celebrated many different cultures in Malaysia and thus created a more harmonious environment in our country

In violin i learned many interesting musical standpoints from the music teacher in charge. He teaches and leads the class very well and always has my attention. He brings the music to every class and is a very fun person to learn from.

The teachers and school personnel always well organised and well trained , Determined to keep the students safe and well being. It’s remarkable that teachers and school administrators consistent with communication and updates with parents never failed to notify every single activity in the school. My daughter start from Grade 1 when she is just 5 years old baby and Now she is 13 years old teenage girl . Days and years passes I witness my daughter getting smarter with positive mental attitude , all the credits goes to the teachers 100% .

Great school.My daughter is actively involved in sports outside of school, therefore require a lot of extra efforts & attention on her study but fortunately teachers & staffs of Fairview Ipoh always show their full commitments & supports during and outside school hours. Even though I live thousands of miles away from Malaysia, I always get constant support from the school, despite the different time zones. Many thanks & appreciation to FIS.
