Given the time to discuss, plan and prepare in class during CME lessons, pupils initiated CME-NE projects and led their fellow classmates in the implementation stages, with the help of teacher-facilitators (their CME teachers). The National Education Committee members stepped in to help with the communications with the School Management and Administration Staff. The Parent Support Group enthusiastically lent their time and expertise to assist in the various celebrations and commemorations.
In February, the Secondary 4 and 5 pupils led the school in the commemoration of Total Defence Day through their service-learning projects. (Check out our February blog entry). This was followed by the commemoration of International Friendship Day led by the Secondary 2 pupils in April.
This month of July has been an exciting one filled with events organised by the Secondary 1 pupils. Read on further for the various service-learning projects undertaken by them with the help of their CME teachers!
August will be yet another thrilling month with the Secondary 3 pupils involved in the National Day celebrations, together with their CME teachers, the NE committee, Uniformed Groups, Symphonic Band and ELDDFS.

Through this NE Programme, the follow-up reflection done and feedback received, it was obvious that children and adults alike develop greater understanding of the six National Education messages through experiential learning, going through different mediums of education to raise their level of awareness.
