Actualization of the P5 Program at SMA Edu Global Medan with the Theme of Local Wisdom: Introducing the Traditions and Ceremony of a Malay Traditional Wedding




As part of the P5 (Pancasila Student Profile) program, SMA Edu Global Medan recently held an event that celebrated local wisdom by introducing the traditions and ceremonial aspects of a traditional Malay wedding. This initiative aimed to foster a deeper appreciation of cultural heritage among students and teachers while promoting mindful, meaningful, and joyful learning.

The event began with a traditional welcoming dance, known as the Tari Persembahan, performed by a group of students. This dance is an essential part of Malay culture, symbolizing respect and hospitality to honored guests. Following this, the ceremony showcased various significant elements of a Malay wedding, allowing students to immerse themselves in the rich traditions of their local culture.

The sequence of events included the Berarak procession, where the groom’s entourage was welcomed with traditional music and decorated umbrellas, signifying protection and honor.

One of the most anticipated moments was the Akad Nikah, the solemnization of the marriage, where symbolic elements of Malay tradition were explained. This was followed by the Tepung Tawar ceremony, in which family elders sprinkled scented water and rice flour on the couple’s hands as a gesture of blessing and well-wishes.

The event concluded with a traditional Makan Berhadap, a communal dining experience where guests, including students and teachers, enjoyed a meal while adhering to traditional customs. This practice highlights the values of togetherness and gratitude deeply rooted in Malay culture.

Through this program, students and teachers at SMA Edu Global Medan gained valuable insights into Malay wedding traditions, strengthening their cultural identity and appreciation. The event not only educated participants about the intricacies of Malay customs but also served as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating Indonesia’s diverse heritage.

The successful execution of this P5 program emphasized the importance of integrating cultural education within the school curriculum, ensuring that students continue to embrace and respect their local traditions while preparing for a globally connected future.

PARENT

Eka Mayasari, S.Sos.

"The reason we chose this school is because we were looking for a school with a small class system. At Edu Global School, each class consists of no more than 20 students. There are many things I love about this school. One of them is the Overseas Program, where students have the opportunity to learn and experience life abroad — even if they don’t necessarily plan to study overseas. It gives them a glimpse of what it’s like to live and study in another country. So far, my daughter and I feel comfortable and well taken care of at EGS."

PARENT

With its comprehensive curriculum and modern facilities, I’m confident that my child will have the best learning experience here. I also truly appreciate the close collaboration between the school and parents. It gives me peace of mind knowing that, as parents, we are actively involved in our child’s educational journey. With all these strengths, I’m certain that choosing Edu Global School is the right step toward a bright future for my child."

"I can’t express how grateful I am for choosing Edu Global School. From the very beginning, I felt the warmth of a truly supportive environment — one where my child was not just taught, but truly cared for. The dedicated teachers nurtured not only academic growth, but also character — shaping my child into an independent, responsible, and globally-minded individual. It’s because of this strong foundation that my child is now pursuing higher education at one of the best universities in Malaysia. Thank you, EGS!"
