 As part of our efforts to commemorate Total Defence 2017, some of our students attended the 50th War Memorial Service organised by Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCCI) on Wednesday, 15 February 2017.

This annual function reaffirms the importance of Total Defence and reminds all of us to cherish peace and freedom. Besides school representatives, other attendees include representatives from business, community and religious organisations, diplomatic corps and uniformed groups. 

2017 is a special year as it marks the 75th Anniversary of the Fall of Singapore in World War II and the 50th anniversary of the establishment of National Service (NS50).
