🌾 Selamat Hari Gawai 🌾

Warm wishes from KAA to all families and friends celebrating Hari Gawai. May this harvest festival bring joy, happiness, good health and prosperity to you and your loved ones.

Selamat Hari Gawai Dayak!
Gayu Guru Gerai Nyamai, Ooo Haaa!

Thank you to Madam Sheila Kho for conducting the workshop on “Introduction to Polymer Clay Craft” on 23 May 2026.

During the workshop, KAA teachers had the opportunity to learn how to create polymer clay keychains through hands-on activities. The workshop provided valuable exposure and creative skills training for the teachers, helping them enhance their creativity, fine motor skills, and teaching techniques.

The knowledge gained from this workshop can also be applied in classroom activities and vocational training for KAA students in the future.

Happy Teachers’ Day to all teachers, especially the wonderful teachers from the Kuching Autistic Association 🌷

Thank you for your patience, passion, dedication and unconditional support for every child. Your hard work, care and encouragement help shape brighter futures and touch many lives.

You are truly appreciated today and always. 💖

Today, 9 May 2026, Kuching Autistic Association successfully carried out a meaningful gotong-royong activity in collaboration with Sarawak Energy Berhad at the KAA garden area and surrounding compound.

The activity brought together parents, teachers, staff, volunteers, and SEB team members in the spirit of teamwork, care, and community engagement. From cleaning and organising the surroundings to gardening activities, everyone worked hand in hand to create a cleaner, brighter, and more welcoming environment for our students.

Beyond the physical work, today’s programme reflected the importance of inclusion, understanding, and support for individuals with autism. Every contribution, no matter how small, carried a meaningful impact towards building a caring and supportive community.
