On 18th Aug 2023, our dedicated cadets took a proactive stance as they embarked on a community outreach mission and Police Youth Ambassador project around Bukit Gombak with Bukit Batok NPC. Cadets engaged with local residents and visited nearby shops, spreading crucial awareness about the importance of staying vigilant against scams. Together, we build a safer and more informed community!  

Leading the Way : For the last week of August 2023, Sec 2 NPCC Cadets remain at the forefront of promoting awareness about scams in the Community Safety & Security Program (CSSP) initiative. They've imparted vital anti-scam knowledge to fellow students during school recess. Let's unite in staying vigilant against scams! 

On 17th Feb 2023, TDD Silver Project undertaken by Sec 2 cadets this year showcases their creative talent and commitment to Total Defence , the cadets took on the role of educators, teaching the Sec 1s how to play the Guardian of the City Trading Card Game (GOTC2). To promote reflection and foster a collaborative environment, they also shared their experiences and insights on managing the lesson and connecting with the Sec 1 cadets with their padlet.

Some of their reflection

"I have learnt that im capable of teaching the younger ones to play GOTC easily, and got to know them better while teaching them during the session, i also think this improved my skills to socialize with younger people then me and this would help if in the future i had a co-worker that was younger than me and that i have to teach them something."  - Farhan S2-1

"I learnt more about TDD and I am glad that I was able to experience the learning with the sec one cadets, it makes me proud that I was able to socialise and community with the sec 1 while teaching them how to play the game, this TDD training helped me to sociallies and become more of a role modle to the sec 1 as well as become more responsible"  - Felicia S2-4

"I have learnt more about the understanding of total defence while explaining to my sec 1 partner about the card game. I have also learnt to socialize with my juniors better. I feel proud when my partner could understand and pick up the game in a short amount of time and being able to communicate with them like friends. This training helps me grow more "- Rebecca S 2-5
