PINE HILLS INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL

As the saying goes: Your attitude determines your altitude; I see the tremendous transformation in his attitude towards life. He is much bolder, more responsible and even better disciplined now. Thank you to the principal, teachers and Pine Hills for your heart and passion in moulding him.

Eric Cheah, AlumniPine Hills teachers are experienced and knowledgeable; learning is made fun but most importantly at Pine Hills, I learnt about Attitude, Behaviour, Character, and Discipline. Thank you, Pine Hills, for not only passing down your knowledge but also helping me set a course for success in life.

EVERY STUDENT MATTERS

Studying in Malaysia was not anything I had considered before, but when the opportunity arose, I thought ‘why not!’. I had never been to Malaysia, but I came with an open mind and ready for an adventure. I am happy that Malaysia is a fascinating country full of life, colour and contrast. “Diversity” I believe this is the key word which most describes Malaysia. The students come from a variety of countries, have diverse background, and thus can see a subject from different perspectives, which always spices up the discussions in class.
