National Service Information Night

The school hosted the first Pre-NS talk on 19 July in collaboration with Singapore’s Ministry of Defence for pre-enlistees among the Year 5 and Year 6 cohort. Mr Ishak, a former Army regular officer, was invited to share with parents and students the enlistment process. He assured them of the rigorous safety protocols which ensure training is conducted in a realistic but safe manner.

Alumni who are now serving national service (NS) in the SAF and SCDF were present to share their experience and how it has helped them to widen their perspective. Members of the PSP were also present to share how they have seen their sons develop and grow in maturity and developed a greater sense of responsibility.

Student participants found the talk useful as it gave them a better idea of what they needed to do in preparation for enlistment. Parents also appreciated the opportunity to clarify whatever doubts that they may have within the training process.
