Sports & Outdoor EducationCharacter Development through Outdoor and Adventure Education
Special Student Development Programmes Offered
Through the school’s Applied Learning Programme (ALP) in ‘Design, Technology and Engineering’ (DTE), students develop in-depth specialised knowledge in engineering and technology, and acquire critical and inventive thinking skills. From the DTE programme, students will learn how to Design, Code and Build. They will be exposed to Computer Aided Design (CAD) software, Arduino programming language and will get the opportunity to rapid prototype their ideas through the use of 3D printers and laser cutters. They will acquire critical 21st century skills such as design thinking, problem-solving strategies as well as creative and critical thinking techniques to solve real-world problems. ‘Outdoor and Adventure Education’ (OAE), the school’s Learning for Life Programme (LLP), nurtures character attributes and specific skillsets through concrete experiences. Students step out of their comfort zones to develop personal qualities of resilience, initiative and self-reliance, and competencies in leadership and teamwork. They also acquire a range of skills in outdoor activities (e.g. kayaking, rock-climbing, orienteering). All students participate in a level camp every year to develop their physical, social and personal skills. The pinnacle activity is a 5-day, 4-night adventure camp for Sec 3 students in Malaysia, where outdoor activities include waterfall abseiling, whitewater rafting, rock-climbing and orienteering.
