Vision
To develop responsible, respectful and resilient cadets
to face the challenges of the changing world and be
successful citizens.
Mission:
To nurture committed cadets who are resourceful,
responsible, resilient, loyal leaders and team players
through fun and challenging military-related activities.
Long Term Goal:
To groom our cadets to show greater social
responsibilities and to take on an increased ownership
of their school, unit and committee
The year of 2015 has been a memorable one for our enterprising
NCC (Sea) coeducational Unit.
The recruitment drive for junior cadets marked a positive
beginning as we were able to attract 21 recruits to our NCC
(Sea) family, boosting our cohort numbers.
For 2014, the NCC unit achieved the Bronze Award in the Annual
Best Unit Competition. NCC’s objective is to provide our cadets
with a holistic learning experience which consists of multiple
activities that aim to inculcate life skills such as confidence,
leadership and perseverance. Through numerous physical and
mental challenges, we develop our cadets by imparting a sense
of national pride and social responsibility within each of them.
Our cadets have done us proud during the sea competition,
securing champion for Bends and Hitches and a creditable finish
in Kayaking. They have displayed a keen sense of fighting spirit
and determination against strong competition from rival schools
to attain these achievements.

This year as we celebrate 50 years of our nation’s independence,
we look back through the 50 years and remember the importance
of the SAF in the defence of our nation. NCC is humbled to be
part of this process through the nurturing of future leaders and
soldiers.
Vision
A choice uniformed group that equips our youths with
life-saving skills for challenging times ahead.
MISSION
To nurture and develop our youths into resilient and
responsible citizens through innovative and challenging
Civil Defence activities.
National Civil Defence Cadet Corps (NCDCC) was introduced
to the school in 2007 and aims to develop the strengths,
characters and knowledge of cadets. Our team of teachers
strives to develop each cadet into a responsible and civicminded
citizen. We also aim to nurture and mould the
leader-ship skills in every cadet. Through a rigorous 4/5 year
programme, cadets were provided with various opportunities
and platforms such as the NCDCC Service Week Learning,
Speech Day Parade, Nanyang Observance Ceremony and Unit
Annual Camp to bring out the best in our cadets.
The secondary one recruitment drive marked the start of an
eventful year where a total of 26 cadets were recruited into our
NCDCC family. Through the fire safety training at HQ, the first
year cadets were introduced to the importance of appreciating
the need for Civil Defence in Singapore. Second year cadets
attended adventure training camps which aimed to develop the
values of Resilience, Graciousness and Teamwork in them.
Third and Fourth year cadets led the unit by applying what they
had learnt during leadership camps and courses, such as the
SNCO Course, with the aim of cultivating the value of Humility,
Integrity and Teamwork in them.
The highlight of the year was the Nanyang Observance
Ceremony where our unit was given the opportunity to be the
Guard of Honour. As we celebrated 50 years of our nation’s
independence, our cadets also learnt the importance of nation
security and that everyone plays a part in defending Singapore.
