Sports and Games Facilities
National Institute of Education (NIE) physical education complex is a
teaching facility and is covered under the Ministry of Manpower
(MOM) Workplace Safety and Health Act (WSH Act) since
September 2011. The Act relates to management of health and
safety at work requiring a risk assessment to be undertaken to
identify the hazards and take necessary steps to reduce the risk of
an incident. All users of the sports facilities will be required to adhere
with the Safety Rules and Regulations governing the appropriate use
of the Sports and Games Facilities. Users will be briefed on the
Emergency Procedures in the event of an incident.
There are outdoor and indoor sports facilities at the Institute’s
physical education complex. Outdoor facilities include an artificial
turf hockey pitch, a teaching pool, four tennis courts, two sepak
takraw courts, one handball court for handball, netball and futsal and
three covered outdoor courts which can be used for basketball,
tennis, netball and volleyball. As for indoor sports, there are five
squash courts and a large multipurpose sports hall which can
accommodate several activities. There is a fully-equipped weighttraining
facility, cardiovascular training facility and a studio for
dance. Users of the Cardiovascular and Resistance Training Rooms
are required to purchase their own TGS key for the exercise
machines and attend an orientation briefing by the Gym supervisor.
All facilities are meant for teaching purposes but can be booked for
recreation outside the teaching schedule, on an approval basis.
