ELC eNewsletter – August 2026 Edition
Happy Independence Day Malaysia!
The 31st of August is a special day for every Malaysian, a day to remember our journey as a nation and celebrate the unity, diversity and spirit that bring us together.
As Merdeka Day falls on a Monday this year, the long weekend offers a chance to come together with family, friends and the community. Throughout August, the celebratory spirit can be felt across the country, with flags flying proudly and celebrations building towards the big day.
At ELC Malaysia, we are proud to be part of this diverse Malaysian community. As a Malaysian-based education provider, we are proud to share our country’s culture and values with students from around the world, while helping them experience the warmth and diversity that make Malaysia special.
From all of us at ELC Malaysia, Selamat Hari Merdeka!
And that's a wrap for Summer Camp 2026
As August comes to an end, so does another exciting ELC Malaysia Summer Camp season!
