House System

As one of the key Student Development Experiences (SDEs) by MOE to achieve our CCE learning outcomes, our school will be conducting our P5 Cohort Camp from 127 to 29 July 2026 at MOE Jalan Bahtera Adventure Centre.

We hope to equip our students with knowledge, skills and values to explore and connect with natural and urban environments safely and responsibly. This 3D2N residential cohort camp will allow students to extend and deepen their learning beyond the classrooms into real life and also provides adventure and challenge for students to develop and demonstrate resilience, apply self-management skills and work with others collaboratively.

Programmes

1.  Healthy Meals in Schools Programme

In 2016, our school started adopting the Healthy Meals in Schools Programme. This programme provides food service guidelines for the school canteen and aims to cultivate good eating habits amongst our pupils and our staff, so that they will be accustomed to consume fruit, vegetables and whole grains as part of their daily diet. The school works together with the stall vendors to ensure that nutritious foods are sold. The stall vendors sell set meals which include a fruit serving. The school also ensures that all food items and ingredients used carry the Healthier Choice Symbol.  

2. Healthy Refreshments for Staff

In collaboration with the Staff Welfare Committee, fruits and/or healthier snack options are provided for the staff for all staff bonding activities.

3.  School Dental Programme

Every year, the school Dental staff will conduct a dental health talk for the Primary 1 pupils. They will learn more about the prevention of tooth decay. They will also learn proper ways of brushing their teeth.

The school dental staff will also share on the prevention of dental plague when the pupils go for their dental treatment. They will also learn how to use the disclosing toothpaste and how to brush properly and effectively.
