CCA

All Secondary One students will be required to submit five CCA choices and allocation will be based according to the preferences while considering their developmental potential.  The school will endeavour to allocate the student to one of her five submitted choices. 

Once a Secondary One student has been allocated the CCA, she must participate in that CCA for the entire academic year. If there is any request for a change of CCA, students may do so during the first month of the subsequent academic year. These students must duly fill in a prescribed CCA Transfer Form, with valid reasons for consideration, which is subjected to the final approval by the HOD PE & CCA. The timeline of the Secondary One CCA Allocation Exercise can be found in the sections below. 

Please note that while CCA in primary school is optional, CCA in secondary school is compulsory and students’ attendance must be regular. The school views absence from CCA without a valid reason seriously. Students whose CCA attendance is less than 75% will receive a “Fair” for conduct in their Holistic Report Card. 

CCAs are generally held on Wednesdays and Fridays after school and will end by 6:00 p.m. The frequency of CCA session for Physical Sports and Visual & Performing Arts CCAs will generally be twice a week and once a week for the Uniformed Groups, Clubs & Societies (except for Debate which will be twice a week). 

Students who are taking official lessons (e.g. MEP, MTL lessons) at external venues must check the days and timings of their lessons with the designated CCA days. They should select a CCA that does not coincide with these lessons. 

The main objective of the trials and auditions is to identify potential in our students and support their development to the fullest in the respective CCA.

Students are strongly encouraged to maximise the opportunities by registering themselves for the trials/ auditions, on the reserved dates on 14, 16, 21, 23 and 30 January 2026. They should try out CCAs from at least three of the four different groups (Uniformed Groups, Physical Sports, Visual & Performing Arts and Clubs & Societies). 

Information on the trials & auditions for the respective CCAs will be available during the CCA fair on Friday, 9 January 2026.

The learning outcomes for CCA are as follows:

• Interests and passion

• Leadership and teamwork

• Friendship and belonging

• Spirit of service to the community

• Knowledge, skills and values related to their chosen CCA

• Core values, social and emotional competencies and the emerging 21st century competencies

Each CCA has its specific objectives. For instance, Physical Sports develop robustness, fair play and team spirit in pupils. The Visual and Performing Arts instill in students a sense of graciousness and an appreciation for the rich culture and heritage of a multi-racial society. Uniformed Group activities aim to make good citizens of students by inculcating in them self-reliance, resilience, discipline and a spirit of service to others. Clubs and Societies allow students to explore and extend their interests in wide ranging and specialized areas which may be knowledge-based or skills-based. Students are honed in information, communication and technical skills as they strive to grow their mastery of the specialized areas.

Through sustained commitment in CCA, students also develop the qualities of a KC Graduate who is

• A Compassionate Servant Leader

• An Effective Communicator

• An Innovative Problem Solver

• A Discerning Citizen of the World

CCAs are offered under the four groups: 

• Physical Sports

• Uniformed Groups

• Visual & Performing Arts

• Clubs & Societies 

Choose a CCA based on your strengths and interests: 

• Students who have done well in their respective CCA in primary school are strongly encouraged to continue in KC to further hone their skills, especially if it is in the area of Physical Sports and the Visual & Performing Arts.

• Choose a CCA which you will enjoy and one which will support you in your development as a balanced individual. 

• Do not be influenced by your peers as you may not enjoy doing what they enjoy. 

Keep an open mind: 

You may be disappointed if you do not get your preferred CCA. Keep an open mind and you may be surprised by how much you enjoy and can learn from your allocated CCA!
