Service-Learning (S-L)

In NP, Service-Learning is infused into different modules across all our schools. Our students experience at least one credit-bearing module in which Service-Learning is the pedagogy.

They participate in an organized service activity that meets identified community needs and reflect on the service activity in such a way as to gain further understanding of course content, a broader appreciation of the discipline, and an enhanced sense of personal values and civic responsibility.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions, students have also done eService-Learning (eSL).

Youth Expedition Projects (YEP)

Every year, students go to nearby countries on Service-Learning trips and Youth Expedition Trips.

This unique experience expands their worldview, allows them to better understand socio-economic issues and nurtures them to be socially responsible, active citizens. It also develops their confidence, resilience, leadership, and teamwork.
