Our school has a motto “We Learn not for School, but for Life” which constructs how we plan all of our learning activities. As a school, we not only focus on academic performance, but we also educate students to become responsible global citizens. This year, sustainable development was the main focus we addressed. Therefore, the importance of sustainability is deemed a key aspect for students to consider in their career planning. As part of Careers Day 2021, students in Grades 9-12 are introduced to career options with sustainable value. 
 
We held our Careers Day event on Thursday, 28 October 2021, and invited 15 guest speakers from the governmental and private sectors to share their expertise and collaboration in achieving sustainable development goals. 
 
Three key speakers, Ms. Febrina Kusumawati. S.Si, MM as the Coordinator of Bappeko Surabaya, Mr. Lauw Hendra as the Associate Director of Ciputra Group, and Mr. Kevin Raharja, as the Strategic Partnership of Bytedance, started the events by discussing how government and private business sectors collaborate in achieving sustainability, especially in Surabaya and Indonesia.
 
Following it, we had 12 parallel sessions with guest speakers from Sayurbox, Tanobel Food (Cleo Pure Water), Jamu Iboe, Ciputra World Hotel, Ciputra Hospital, BreadnBeyond, Jaya Karya Bangunpersada, DND Design, Indodana, UD Anisa Jaya, Sincerely Warp and Baramulti Group sharing the implementation of sustainability values in their fields of business and giving tips of essential skills needed for students for their future career.
