Yusof Ishak Secondary School

Congratulations to our YI students for shining at the 27th International Elementz Fair! 🏆 We are incredibly proud to share that two of our students brought home Gold Awards at this year’s fair, held on 21 April 2026.

🍅 Wee Hong Yu impressed the judges with his research project conducted in our very own AgriSphere Lab – a fascinating exploration into how light influences plant growth and yield.
🌊 P**n Xi Song wowed the judges with his innovative prototype, “The Sprouted Propagule” – a creative and sustainable solution inspired by nature itself.

From science research to cutting-edge innovation, our students have demonstrated that curiosity, hard work, and dedication truly pay off.

The Boys Brigade 1st Coy awarded High Distinction for J M Fraser Award for Excellence

Our school’s Boys’ Brigade (1st Singapore Company) was awarded High Distinction at the J M Fraser Award for Excellence Ceremony held on 23rd May 2026!

We thank our dedicated Volunteer Adult Leaders (VAL) for their unwavering partnership and support in nurturing our boys to become Leaders for Tomorrow, grounded in strong character and values. Congratulations to BB boys, parents, teachers and VALs on this meaningful achievement!

Our Fencing Team has done us proud!

Earlier this year, they took part in a friendly fencing challenge against Catholic Junior College and Madrasah Al-Arabiah Al-Islamiah. Our Girls Epee Team and Mixed Foil Team both emerged as Champions in their respective categories!

Recently, at this year’s National School Games, our Yusoffians placed among Singapore’s top fencers, a show of true testament to the dedication and hard work our athletes pour in every day.

Congratulations to all our fencers for representing Yusof Ishak Secondary with pride and passion! 🤺

Lunch with food, friends and music taste so much better!

The Sec 2 students put up a delectable Lunch Time performance together with their friends with much confidence and musicality. Cheered on by their friends, it was an opportunity to showcase what the Sec 2 students have been working on in Term 2 for their Pop Band Module.

In addition, we were treated to performances from various genres like Xin Yao and musical theatre! We also admired students’ fashion designs that were on display too!

Thank you everyone who came by to support your friends with your presence and cheers!

24 Apr was a truly a day where we celebrated the community and our values.

In the morning, we had our 61st Speech Day, and the theme, “Growing with G.R.I.T.”, featured our refreshed school values of Gratitude, Respect, Integrity and Teamwork. Together, we rejoiced with our students, staff and partners as they received accolades for their achievements.

In the afternoon, we had our first Homecoming Event in the Punggol Campus. Alumni from our Jubilee, Bukit Batok and Punggol campuses gathered together under one roof as we caught up with each other over food and games.

In the evening, our Visual and Performing Arts students came together for YI’s inaugural combined VPA concert “Ignite: The Artistry”, through vibrant artworks and engaging performances. All proceeds from the concert went towards the President’s Challenge, reflecting our commitment to being Leaders for Tomorrow, Leaders for the Greater Good.

Our Wushu team did us proud at the recent National School Games, through their determination, discipline and strong team spirit!

Despite the challenges and intense competition, they demonstrated remarkable resilience by persevering through setbacks and giving their best in every performance!

The Student Leaders Investiture 2026, held on the 16th of April 2026, marked a meaningful milestone for Yusof Ishak Secondary School as we officially welcomed a new batch of student leaders. The ceremony not only signified the start of their leadership journey, but also served as a platform to honour the dedication and contributions of our outgoing leaders.
Guided by this year’s theme, “Lead, Grow, and Bloom”, student leaders were reminded of their role in shaping the school community. To lead is to step forward with courage and responsibility, to grow is to continuously learn and develop through experiences, and to bloom is to make a positive impact on others and the school as a whole. This theme reflects the shared journey of all student leaders as they strive to serve with purpose and heart.
We would also like to express our heartfelt appreciation to the outgoing EXCOs and student leaders for their unwavering commitment, dedication, and service to the school. Their contributions have left a lasting impact on the YI community.
As the new batch of student leaders embark on this journey, we look forward to lead with integrity, grow with resilience, and bloom with gratitude into leaders who inspire others.
