EFFORTS TODAY REWARDS TOMORROW
Holistic Development of Students
With intentional efforts to grow our Yuan Ching culture, we also believe in developing students with character as espoused in our signature STRONG framework. We provide our students with leadership opportunities and training sessions to grow them as leaders. Opportunities are given to students to represent our school in competitions that develop them as critical thinkers. Some of our key programmes include Financial Literacy workshops, Design Thinking workshops and Growth mindset workshops.
Growing through our Applied Learning Programme
Our Applied Learning Programme (ALP) focuses on Marine Robotics. As part of ALP, students apply their Scientific Thinking and Design Thinking skills and work in teams to design and build underwater vessels with capability of incorporating sensors for data collection and navigation. As part of the programme, students also learn coding through the micro:bit and mBot platform. A Tinkering Centre has been set up for interested students to explore STEM projects independently, including the use of Arduino programming language. Students who are passionate in STEM will also be identified for the ALP Talent Development Programme.

Our Learning Experiences
Growing through our Learning for Life Programme
Our Learning for Life Programme (LLP) focuses on dragon boating, ‘gRowing Values through Sports and Outdoor Experiences’ and is aimed at developing our ‘GRIT21’ student outcomes (G-Growth Mindset, R – Resilience, I – IExCEL (School Values), T – Thrive, 21 – 21st Century Competencies). Students will grow their values and skills as they learn the basics of dragon boating in Secondary 2 and participate in team racing in our very own Dragon Boat Quest. Students with the talent and aptitude for the sport can pursue further by opting to participate in the Talent Development Programme, where our students have the opportunity to grow by attending dialogue sessions with practitioners from the sports industry, attend related learning journeys and experience a multi-sport exposure.
Growing in our Co-Curricular Activities (CCA)
At Yuan Ching, our students receive multiple learning opportunities to discover and grow in their interests and passions. Our CCA programme is anchored on the philosophy of P.A.S.S.I.O.N (Present, Attitude and Attire, Safety, Service, Imagine and Innovate, Objective and Navigate).
