The IPEKA Center Point of Indonesia (CPI) Christian School held a topping off procession or roof covering on Saturday, February 25, 2023. The topping off ceremony of the IPEKA CPI Christian School building, located in CitraLand City Losari Makassar, was attended and carried out symbolically by pressing a button by the Pastor of GKY Makassar, Pdt. Lie Budhiono, the Chairman of the IPEKA Foundation, Mr. Erwin Tenggono, and the CEO of IPEKA, Rev. Handojo.
The implementation of the topping off procession marked the end of the IPEKA CPI building construction process and entered the finishing stage. Construction is proceeding on schedule following the groundbreaking on April 1, 2022. As planned, teaching and learning activities at IPEKA CPI Christian School will begin in July 2023 for the 2023/2024 school year. IPEKA CPI will open and serve various levels of education with an international standard curriculum for Nursery and Kindergarten (Early Childhood), Junior High School (Grade 7), and Senior High School (Grade 10).
IPEKA CPI Christian School is located in CitraLand City Losari Makassar, which is a strategic area because it is located in front of Losari Beach and downtown Makassar. The area called "The Center Point of Indonesia" will later become a new center of economic growth and the economic center of the city of Makassar, which is growing rapidly.
Present in Makassar as an international standard Christian school that utilizes technology in learning, IPEKA CPI is committed to educating students through quality Christian education.
"IPEKA CPI is committed to preparing future Christian leaders. In the learning process, IPEKA CPI prioritizes using technology to prepare students to face future challenges. "As a result, we also provide teachers with training to improve their ability to apply learning at the IPEKA CPI," said Rev. Handojo, CEO of IPEKA.
IPEKA CPI Christian School prepares young people who have excellent academic abilities and character. IPEKA CPI also equips students with Leadership, Creativity, Innovation, Communication, Collaboration, Critical Thinking, and Problem-Solving skills.
In addition, IPEKA CPI also organizes foreign language mastery programs that enable students to master English and Mandarin based on international standards. Apart from Indonesian, equipping students with these two foreign languages will make them more than ready to communicate well in a global environment.
IPEKA CPI Christian School uses a curriculum enriched with international learning standards, namely the Pearson Edexcel Curriculum. This curriculum features five pillars of excellence called ILEAD and consists of Internal Growth, Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Language Acquisition, and Digital Literacy.
