The event, which is normally known as Hakrab (Bonding Day), is one of the routine events held every year by the Scholarship Office with the purpose of strengthening the bond between the student grantees, fostering friendship among them, and disseminating the existing programs in the Scholarship Office.
Besides that, Hakrab is intended to nurture the positive characteristics of the student grantees, namely discipline, responsibility, and respect.
The them of this
year’s Hakrab was “Moving Forward Together Confidently,” which was aimed
to boost the cooperation and camaraderie among the student grantees so that
they were eager to move forward to enhance their intellectual capacities and
creativity with strong vigor and confidence. The event included numerous
exciting games and seminars that were held to enrich the knowledge of the
student grantees.
“The event was very
interesting. I could meet and grow together with new friends. Thank you to the
Scholarship Office for facilitating this gathering” said Bona, one of the
grantees of the APTIK Peduli Mentawai Scholarship.
