"No Harm in Trying..." The phrase that spurred 2 time scholarship recipient Audrey to go the extra mile
During the interview with Audrey, she mentioned this phrase a few times, "No harm in trying...." The only Reach Cambridge Summer Program recipient from Indonesia that year to obtain a fully paid scholarship to pursue the course, Audrey was initially hesitant to apply  when Ichthus shared the program with the students.  She had to save up for university.  Ms Martha, kepala sekolah, encouraged her and said "No harm in trying for the scholarship, what is there to lose?". That advise resonated with Audrey. With strong recommendation letters from the school and rounds of screening and interviews  later, Audrey obtained a full scholarship and had an unforgettable experience in Cambridge that summer.  Deja Vu all over, Mr Andy, English teacher knowing what Audrey is capable of despite her preference for the sciences, said to her,  "Take up English Literature Audrey, no harm in trying, you will be surprised",  A year later, Audrey was pleasantly surprised to receive the Cambridge Excellence Award for English Literature scoring the highest marks for the subject in Indonesia.  ​Audrey went on to receive  a full scholarship for her undergraduate studies in  Engineering in University of Hong Kong.

Transformational Stories
Emari spoke very little English when she first joined Ichthus. She was very quiet and reserved. With help from her teachers and many extra classes later, today, she is a picture of confidence and loves to have long chats with anyone. Hard working, humble and extremely driven, Emari took up the leadership post in the student council and was the sports representative for the students. She was in the Barracuda soccer girls team and they won the inter-school soccer competitions 2 years in a row. Emari received admissions to several top Japanese universities including Waseda , Keio and several others in Japan. She will return to study in Japan after more than 9 years in Ichthus and we will miss her cheerful and chatty presence!

Champion, Pacific Youth Parliament Debate Competition Peter Lesmana G12
Peter moved to Ichthus for his secondary schooling. According to him, the move was one of the best decisions he has ever made. On his first attempt and experience in participating in debate competitions, Peter went on to take the top prize at the Pacific Youth Parliament. He never ever once tried debating in his previous school. The win in the debate competition eventually went to fueling his passion and interest in law.  Today, Peter is reading law at University Gadjah Madah.  We are indeed proud of your transformation.
