Hello CR Friends, how are you doing?
We hope you are always healthy and happy wherever you are.
Back again with CR updates that will always bring you the latest news and activities from Cahaya Rancamaya Islamic Boarding School.
In commemoration of Indonesia’s 80th Independence Day, Cahaya Rancamaya Islamic Boarding School once again held the National Defense Program for new students of the 2025/2026 academic year.
The activity, conducted on Thursday, August 28, 2025, aimed to foster and build positive character traits in students, such as discipline, resilience, agility, and more.
Guided directly by personnel from the Indonesian Army, the program began with health checks by the medical team, followed by warming up and stretching exercises, and then continued with a long march of approximately 2.5 hours.
Upon arrival at the training area, students received material on how to use safety tools and equipment when crossing an emergency rope bridge. Afterward, they prepared for the Dhuhr prayer and lunch.
During lunch, students were also taught discipline and proper etiquette regarding food. The activities then continued with the spider web challenge and concluded with rappelling, descending from a height using ropes.
Before returning to their beloved school, students were also given basic marching drills. They participated enthusiastically in every part of the program until the very end.
It is hoped that through this program, CRIBS students will gain valuable experiences to prepare themselves as a resilient generation, equipped not only with knowledge but also with strong Islamic character.
