At Pathlight, learning extends beyond the classroom and such camps are just one of the many ways to develop independent learners. We hope our students had an enriching experience and learnt the importance of teamwork while living out our Pathlight 5C Values!
On 4 July 2022, eight of our Pathlight scouts took part in a tree planting event at East Coast Park as part of the OneMillionTrees Movement.
The OneMillionTrees Movement aims to transform Singapore into a "City in Nature" by planting a million more trees over the next 10 years. Our Pathlight scouts certainly brought along with them much zeal and enthusiasm to the event as they actively participated in preparing the ground for tree planting and learning how to plant trees to ensure it grows well.
Through this event, our scouts showcased Pathlight’s 5Cs values of contribution and conviction, and learnt the importance of being stewards of the environment!
The National Day Parade (NDP) National Education (NE) Show returned in July after a break of two years. Our Primary 5 students were thrilled to attend the NE Show on Saturday, 9 July 2022. Themed “Stronger Together, Majulah!”, it serves as a rallying call for Singaporeans as we emerge from the COVID-19 crisis.
During the NE show, students sang along to our National Day theme song favourites, did the Marina Wave, and enjoyed skydiving stunts by the iconic Red Lions in the pre-parade segment. The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), Singapore Police Force (SPF) and Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) also showcased the Total Defence Display which displayed their skills and tenacity in keeping our country safe. The NE show concluded with a series of performances and a captivating fireworks display.
Through this experience, our students not only made enjoyable memories with one another but also learnt the significance of National Day. They also reflected upon the challenges Singaporeans faced amidst the COVID-19 crisis and celebrated the nation’s achievements in overcoming hardships. Students left the NE show feeling inspired to pursue their dreams and aspirations in the face of challenges!
