Outdoor Education for Character and Leadership Development

Our Learning for Life Programme (LLP) centres on Outdoor Education for Character and Leadership Development, providing students with transformative experiences that build resilience, confidence, and environmental awareness through hands-on outdoor adventures.

 Building Essential Skills

Students develop fundamental outdoor competencies through our Physical Education curriculum, mastering navigation, trip planning, outdoor cooking, and shelter building. These practical skills form the foundation for progressive outdoor challenges that foster independence and teamwork.

 Progressive Learning Journey

Our programme offers level-specific experiences that build upon each other. Secondary 1 students embark on Inter-Disciplinary Trails, utilising trip planning skills to explore Singapore's historically significant blue and green spaces. Secondary 2 students tackle Orienteering at Zhenghua Nature Park, applying navigation skills in unfamiliar terrain to locate checkpoints.

The pinnacle experience is our Secondary 3 Expedition Camp; a fully student-led 4-Day 3-Night Outdoor Adventure Learning Cohort Camp where students integrate all their learned competencies whilst taking complete ownership of their outdoor experience.

 Celebrating Excellence

 Every two years, our unique Outdoor Skills Challenge brings the school community together in an exciting inter-class competition, where students demonstrate their mastery of outdoor living, sense of place, and risk assessment skills.

Through these varied experiences, students develop practical outdoor competencies alongside essential character traits and leadership qualities that serve them throughout their lives.
