Singapore American School

Today is Juneteenth, the federal holiday commemorating the end of slavery in the US. It marks the historic moment on June 19, 1865, when the news of freedom finally reached the last enslaved communities in Texas.

At Singapore American School, we join in this commemoration. We celebrate the unyielding spirit of freedom and the deep resilience of Black Americans. As a school community, we remember the past to honor those who endured enslavement while reflecting on the ongoing, shared journey for justice and equality. Nurturing global-mindedness means committing to learn and grow together every single day.

We recently took over the stadium field for an incredible day of community and sport at the second annual Eagle Stumps Trophy Cricket Tournament!

This unique, student-led initiative brought together a fantastic lineup of teams from across our campus, connecting our high school students directly with our dedicated facilities staff, contractors, and construction crew members. While the action on the pitch was highly competitive, the true magic of the tournament was found in the spaces between the matches—the shared conversations, the laughter, and the meaningful relationships built with the hard-working individuals who shape and maintain our campus every day.

The event stood as a powerful expression of gratitude, giving the field back to its builders and celebrating their passion for cricket on the very grounds they helped create. We are immensely proud of our student organizers for leading this event and deeply thankful to our entire crew for their unwavering commitment to our campus.

Welcome to week two of our Summer Semester! Our campus is alive with spectacular energy as students jump back into another week of creative challenges and hands-on discovery.

Our opening week was a massive success, packed with unique projects and real-world problem-solving. The learning continues this week across our favorite programs, including our robotics and coding labs, outdoor activities, and collaborative tasks designed to spark curiosity. Led by our dedicated SAS educators, this program offers a truly rewarding summer experience for both SAS and non-SAS students.

Registration for weeks three and four remains open, allowing you to select exactly which weeks fit your summer schedule. Don’t miss out! Click the link below to join in on the fun!
