Learning for Life Programme
Introduction
The school’s Learning for Life Programme (LLP) develops students to be self, community and peer leaders who advocate and effect positive changes to people and the environment around them.
Overview of LLP Framework
Self Leaders with Growth Mindset
A series of Growth Mindset lessons is offered to all students to enrich their educational experience and develop them to be self leaders. This includes learning the key messages and strategies of Growth Mindset and structuring time for students for goal-setting and reflections. A student with growth mindset learns from their mistakes (reflective), embraces challenges and puts in effective effort to achieve their goals.
Community Leaders who Advocate
Learning opportunities for students to advocate and effect positive changes are provided throughout their schooling years. We encourage students to take on an active role to advocate through creating awareness to others.
The Primary 4 students had the opportunity to learn more about gracious and safe commuting from SMRT through a virtual dialogue session with a team of SMRT staff. Gleaning from their learning, students designed slogans and made them into badges for the promotion of gracious commuting. The badges were then gifted and explained personally to each Primary 3 student, as part of their efforts to advocate and encourage others to contribute to the cause.

Students with keen interest and displays potential for further development in leadership are identified and trained across 2 main categories:
