The St John Ambulance Brigade of Swiss Cottage Secondary School went through an exciting and enriching year.  Through a list of comprehensive and fun-filled programs such as first aid courses, drills and camps, the CCA aims to work towards their character development while allowing them to have fun and lead a youthful and robust life.  Aspiring towards our motto, For the Service of Mankind, our cadets are actively involved in public duties, walkathons, flag days, as well as hospital duties. We are also proud to announce that our Corps has once again attained the Gold Award in the Corps Achievement Award. A round of applause to our dedicated teachers, officers and students! We will continue to scale greater heights and improve our First Aid skills so as to serve the Nation and our school better.

The Swiss spirit endures beyond the school grounds! Swiss students were present at the School Annual Cross Country held on 1^st March 2013 at The Japanese Garden. Our students showed great enthusiasm as they vied to outrun the nominated runners for the Principal’s Challenge. The annual Principal’s Challenge allows students to raise funds for Swiss needy students by outrunning the Principal and his nominated runners. Our students (and our Principal and teachers!) showed the Dare-To-Try spirit by taking upon this challenge and managed to raise $775.

 

Swiss Signature        

 

PRIDE values resonate throughout our school on a daily basis and the spirit of care and empathy has always shone through. Our PRIDE value of Empathy manifested through Zayan from 2E3, when he sacrificed the much coveted top 20 position to help a friend who fell mid-way through the competition, allowing other strong competitors to run ahead of him. We salute Zayan for amplifying our PRIDE value of empathy!

 

There is no greater show of integrity than to acknowledge and commend a better sportsman. But today, our first place winner Wei En from 4E5 announced, while receiving his award, that Fikry Hakeem of 4T1 could have been the first-place winner but fainted right before the finishing line. He asked of the school to give Fikry his due recognition, and proud Swiss students responded with a fervent applause. We are proud of this great sense of sportsmanship and integrity.

 

Swiss Students once again showed us that winning is not as important as making an impact on someone else’s life.

Exemplifying Empathy

 

Swiss Cottage Secondary School is very proud to be part of this year’s Chingay’s grandiose and multi-cultural performances.  About 240 Secondary 1 students and 60 Chinese Orchestra members participated in this year’s parade.  They were part of the 1500 Ukulele performers and they put up a stunning performance despite learning the ukulele for the first time and having only 10 hours of practice.  The theme of this year’s parade, Fire in Snow, is meant to reflect the strength of the human spirit.  Our Swiss students have demonstrated resilience, a vital part of the Swiss and Singapore spirit.

 

The event wouldn’t have been a success if it wasn’t for the efforts of not just our student performers, but our teachers and parent volunteers.  In fact, 18 parents had taken time from their busy schedule to support our teachers in looking after our students’ needs during the many nights of practice sessions and performances outside of school.  With the support from parents and teachers, our Swiss students did the school proud with their passionate and lively performances.
