Changi NE Trail

The Changi National Education Trail was incorporated into the Secondary 1 orientation camp from 17 - 18 January 2011. During the trail, the Secondary 1 students visited the following historical sites:

1) Changi Chapel and Museum

2)      Changi Prison

3)      Johore Battery

4)      Civil Defence Volunteer Training Centre

5)      Changi Beach Massacre

These places were chosen because they remind the students of Singapore’s past and present vulnerabilities. In addition, the trail also emphasizes the need for the students to be united and resilient, and not to take things for granted.
