Partners
To enrich our students’ learning beyond the classroom, we seek opportunities to collaborate with partners from both the government and private sector. Below are the details of our collaborating partners and the areas of our collaboration.
Aesthetics
| Organisations | Areas of collaboration | |::| | PAssionArts
(Established by PA with the support of the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth, the PAssionArts brand was developed to provide a collective identity to community arts in Singapore.) | Our students have been participating in The Community Art Gallery, a PAssionArts programme that invites community artists and residents to display and share their art works at community places so as to help more residents appreciate art at their doorstep. Community Art Galleries can be found right in our neighbourhood – at HDB void decks, coffee shops and marketplaces – where it is accessible to everyone, everyday. | | Singapore Art Museum
| Our school has been partnering with the Singapore Art Museum (SAM) annually to enrich the Art curriculum through the Think! Contemporary Programme.
The programme promotes exposure to contemporary artists and their art works through museum visits. Students will subsequently create ceramic and mixed media art pieces inspired by the exhibits they have viewed. This will culminate in having their art pieces being showcased at the Think! Contemporary Exhibition. |
Environment Sustainability
| Organisations | Areas of collaboration | |::| | Green Sproutz Pte Ltd
| Our school takes part in the Little Green Dots Outreach programme organised by Green Sproutz Singapore. This is an outreach programme to raise awareness on the proper way to recycle used beverage cartons (UBCs) amongst the pre-schoolers. Students learn about the materials that the UBCs are made from and how to practise Rinse-Flip-Flap-Flatten to recycle them properly.
Green Sproutz Singapore also organises the Little Green Dots leadership session for our P3 and P4 Environmental Science Club members. Selected students are further trained by our teachers to share their knowledge with the preschoolers during the outreach programme. | | National Environment Agency
| Our school collaborates with National Environment Agency (NEA) to inculcate good environmental and social values amongst students and increase their awareness of environmental challenges faced by Singapore. To this end, NEA provides the environmental games conducted during Earth Week. Student leaders get to play the role of game masters to share their knowledge of recyclables, energy and water conservation during recess. | | National Parks Board
| In collaboration with National Parks (NParks), the P4 students embark on the Outreach Ambassador Programme based on the theme of “Eco Stewardship and Sustainability”. Students learn about Singapore’s native biodiversity and the appropriate behaviours when exploring the nature reserves. Students make posters based on what they learn to create awareness on how to take care of the parks and animals, drawing attention to the endangered animals and plant species in the parks. | | North West CDC
| Our school actively takes part in a variety of programmes initiated by North West Community Development Council (NWCDC).
The programmes include :
Green Learning Journey where students go on a virtual learning journey to understand the importance of environmental conservation. Students get to share their ideas on using resources efficiently and ways to reduce carbon footprints.
Keep Clean @ North West - Students go on a community litter picking activity within the Chestnut neighborhood.The aim of these activities is to provide opportunities for students to improve the environment and help clean up our neighbourhood. The close partnership with NWCDC reduces the amount of litter in the water bodies and the clogging of the drainage system. The effort of our students also prevents accidental ingestion of garbage by wildlife and protects biodiversity. |
