In Week 1, our Secondary Three and Four students were given the opportunity to Re-Discover their strengths and passion to pursue their dreams through our “REgent-Discovers Aspirations” programme. The planned programme aimed to give students greater exposure to the world of work, to take charge of their career planning and development as well as to have greater exposure to tertiary education.
This year’s programme was kickstarted by a series of meaningful sharing helmed by various industry speakers from diverse industries such as Legal, Aviation, Healthcare, Business & Accounting, Engineering, Food and Beverage, Cybersecurity as well as Hospitality and Tourism.
This was followed by an eye-opening experience at this year’s polytechnic open house visits. The Secondary Four students visited Nanyang Polytechnic and Republic Polytechnic while the Secondary Three students visited Ngee Ann Polytechnic. These learning journeys allowed them to interact with enthusiastic poly student facilitators and enjoy various hands-on activities. Jayden Tan from class 4-Respect shared that the polytechnic experience was enlightening and allowed him to make wiser decisions about post-secondary school options. Other students, such as Jerome Chan from class 3-Gratitude, also found the experience very insightful as it exposed them to more polytechnic courses.
All in all, students agree that the ECG programmes have reignited their resolve in “rediscovering” their strengths and purposeful pursuits!
