Enactment of CCE
In the enactment of CCE2021 curriculum, we value student-centricity, intentionality and coherence when designing learning experiences such as Book-Free Day to support student well-being and ignite the joy of learning.
Book-Free Day ‘(Re)Discovering Myself’
Based on the Reflective Practice Model of asking ‘what’, ‘why’, ‘so what’ and ‘now what’, this pedagogical approach shaped students’ learning experiences over the two days, as they went through a cycle involving experiencing, reflecting, thinking and acting to transform their experiences into learning.

Student Well-Being
From classroom activities such as Back-to-School activities to check in on student well-being, to promoting inclusivity and involving student leaders as peer supporters in school-wide programmes, students are equipped with the necessary skills and provided with support to overcome challenges and seek help from others.
