School Pictures
학생 사진 관련 유감
学校的照片

As our school continues to grow, we have been challenged to find the ideal school photography company that is able and willing to cater to our size and requirements. In the hopes of receiving better service and higher quality photographs, the school employed a new photography company with an established reputation with other international schools on the island. However, after much feedback, it has been determined that we will not be using the same company for next school year’s photos. The most frequent complaints regarded the cost and format of pictures as well as difficulty in navigating the company’s website. Moreover, this company is not based in Penang which has added further complications.  In conclusion, we regret any inconvenience caused and we will continue to pursue an alternative company for next year’s pictures.
