Caring Day at DCS Elementary: Living Out True Love from the Father’s Love

On February 13, 2026, DCS Elementary held a special event called Caring Day, a meaningful moment for students to learn about the true essence of love. As this time is often associated with Valentine’s Day, our students were guided to understand love from a deeper perspective – the love that comes from our Heavenly Father.

The love we teach is not merely based on feelings, but rooted in the Father’s Love – a love that is unconditional, faithful, and given to us first. From this truth, students learn that we are able to love because God first loved us.

With the theme “True Love” taken from 1 John 3:18, “Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth,” students were guided to understand that true love must be expressed through real actions.

Throughout the Caring Day activities, students received meaningful lessons on how to live out this love in their daily lives; starting from loving themselves as God’s precious creation, loving their families especially their parents, and developing a caring heart toward others around them.

In particular, students were encouraged to be aware of and respond to the needs of children affected by the flood disaster in Tapanuli Tengah and surrounding areas, North Sumatra. Through this, they learned that love knows no boundaries – of distance, ethnicity, or background.

As a tangible expression of this learning, all Grade 1 to Grade 6 students participated in a “Saving for Love” activity, held from January 26–30, 2026 during Morning Devotion time. Through their sincerity and joyful giving, a total of Rp 16,592,200 was collected.

The funds have been distributed to support children affected by the flood in Tapanuli Tengah and nearby areas through the GBT KAO Semarang Mission Department. The report of the collection and distribution was shared with students during Kids Service and also communicated to parents.

Through this initiative, students learned that True Love is love in action – love that goes beyond understanding and is demonstrated through real deeds. Even across distance, from Semarang to Tapanuli, love can reach those in need. This shows that no act of love is too small when it is done with a sincere heart.

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all parents for their support and encouragement in guiding the students through this meaningful journey. Your partnership plays a vital role in shaping children to grow in Christ-like character from an early age.

 

May this Caring Day inspire every DCS Elementary student to continually grow in knowing and living out the Father’s Love, becoming individuals who shine God’s light and share His love wherever they go.

Little Star Competition : DCS Tanahmas Open House

Suasana Open House DCS Tanahmas 2026 pada 11 April 2026 terasa seperti taman kecil tempat bibit-bibit masa depan mulai menunjukkan warna mereka. Kegiatan ini menjadi bagian dari rangkaian perayaan ulang tahun ke-20 DCS, sekaligus menjadi wadah bagi anak-anak usia 1,5 hingga 6 tahun untuk melangkah keluar dari zona nyaman mereka, mencoba hal baru, dan mengekspresikan diri dengan cara yang menyenangkan.

Mengusung tema Little Star Competition, acara ini dirancang untuk merayakan setiap potensi unik yang dimiliki anak sejak usia dini. Berbagai perlombaan disiapkan dengan pendekatan yang tidak hanya kompetitif, tetapi juga edukatif dan penuh keceriaan. Lomba menyanyi menghadirkan momen-momen manis ketika anak-anak berani tampil di depan umum, menyuarakan lagu dengan penuh percaya diri. Baby Dancing menjadi panggung kecil yang dipenuhi gerakan lucu dan spontan, sementara English Competition mendorong anak-anak untuk mulai berani menggunakan bahasa asing dalam suasana yang santai dan suportif. 

Berbagai perlombaan dihadirkan untuk mengakomodasi minat dan potensi anak sejak dini. Mulai dari lomba menyanyi yang penuh percaya diri, Lasy yang melatih kreativitas spasial, Ring Donut yang seru dan mengundang tawa, Baby Dancing yang menggemaskan, English Competition yang memperkenalkan keberanian berbahasa, hingga C-Robo yang merangsang logika dan kreativitas.

Acara ini diikuti oleh peserta dari internal DCS maupun dari berbagai sekolah lain. Kehadiran peserta eksternal membawa warna tersendiri, menciptakan suasana interaksi yang lebih luas dan mempererat semangat kebersamaan antar anak-anak dari berbagai latar belakang. Hal ini juga menunjukkan bahwa DCS menjadi ruang yang terbuka dan inklusif bagi siapa saja yang ingin bertumbuh bersama.

Sepanjang acara, antusiasme peserta terlihat begitu nyata. Dari wajah-wajah yang penuh rasa ingin tahu, langkah-langkah kecil yang berani naik ke panggung, hingga sorak sorai orang tua yang mendampingi, semuanya berpadu menjadi energi positif yang menghidupkan suasana. Tidak sedikit momen haru dan bangga ketika anak-anak berhasil menyelesaikan tantangan mereka, sekecil apa pun itu.

Lebih dari sekadar perlombaan, Open House ini menjadi pengalaman berharga bagi anak-anak untuk belajar tentang keberanian, proses, dan sukacita dalam mencoba. Setiap anak yang hadir bukan hanya peserta, tetapi juga “bintang kecil” yang sedang bertumbuh, bersinar dengan cara mereka masing-masing. Melalui kegiatan ini, DCS kembali menegaskan komitmennya dalam mendampingi perkembangan anak secara holistik, tidak hanya dari sisi akademis, tetapi juga karakter, kreativitas, dan kepercayaan diri.

At DCS Preschool Tanah Mas, we were delighted to celebrate the 20th anniversary of DCS with a special and meaningful event. The celebration began with a Kids’ Service, where the children gathered to worship, sing, and thank God for His faithfulness throughout the years.

After the service, we continued with a simple birthday celebration together with all the students and teachers. One of the most special moments was the candle blowing and cake cutting, made even more meaningful by the birthday cake kindly sponsored by the DCS School Committee, for which we are truly grateful.

The atmosphere was full of smiles and excitement as each class took their class photos, capturing precious memories for both the children and our school.

During the celebration, we also announced the winners of the Healthy Food Competition. Over the past month, the children had been encouraged to bring healthy meals from home. The announcement of the winners added even more joy to the celebration, this event helped promote good eating habits in a fun and engaging way.

We thank God for His faithfulness and blessings over DCS throughout these years. Our hope and prayer are that DCS will continue to grow, nurture young hearts, and make a positive impact on many more children and families in the future.

You Won’t Believe What Grade XI Students Discovered at Kampung Nelayan Tambak Lorok!

You Won’t Believe What Grade XI Students Discovered at Kampung Nelayan Tambak Lorok!

On September 12, 2024, the grade XI students of SMA Daniel Creative Semarang embarked on an exciting field trip to Kampung Nelayan Tambak Lorok, Semarang. This field trip is part of the school’s innovative learning program designed to foster student creativity and provide hands-on learning experiences. The students were eager to explore the area and meet the local fishermen from Komunitas Camar.

The adventure began with a thrilling boat ride to the mangrove island. Each student was given a bundle of mangrove seedlings and taught how to plant them in the designated area. This hands-on activity not only educated them about environmental conservation but also allowed them to contribute directly to the local ecosystem. The students then rotated through five different UMKM (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises) posts. At Post 1, they delved into green mussel cultivation, learning about harvesting and processing for consumption, and even checked the water’s pH levels. Post 2 focused on creating crafts from marine waste, where students made bracelets, necklaces, and miniature sea animals. At Post 3, they were introduced to the production of shrimp paste and salted fish, learning about the drying and processing methods. Finally, at Post 4, they discovered how mangrove leaf chips are made and marketed.

Throughout the day, the students engaged in various activities that honed their observation skills and critical thinking abilities. They conducted interviews with the fishermen from Komunitas Camar, gaining valuable insights into the daily lives and challenges of the local fishing community. This interactive and enjoyable learning experience not only strengthened their social bonds but also provided them with a deeper appreciation of the importance of environmental conservation and sustainable practices. The field trip to Kampung Nelayan Tambak Lorok was a resounding success, leaving the Grade XI students of SMA Daniel Creative Semarang with unforgettable memories and valuable knowledge. This experience has undoubtedly enriched their understanding of the material studied in class and inspired them to think creatively about solving real-world problems.
