Get to know each school

Changkat Changi Secondary School

Changkat Changi began in 1966 on a small hill at Jalan Tiga Ratus. Its pupils included children from Pulau Ubin and Pulau Tekong, who travelled by morning and evening ferry. Lessons initially used English, Mandarin and Malay; English became the teaching language by 1973. The school moved to 23 Simei Street 3 in 2001. Its aviation ALP started in 2015. These dates help distinguish stories about the original campus from the school families visit today.

All lower-secondary pupils attend weekly SOAR lessons on flight principles, glider construction and drone programming. Further opportunities depend on interest and aptitude: flying-machine competitions, Singapore Polytechnic or Rolls-Royce workshops, and aviation exchanges. The page records French exchanges in May 2024 and Shanghai and Hong Kong travel in November 2025; these are past examples, rather than trips promised to every child. Applicants without prior STEM experience may be assessed on potential. Pupils admitted through this DSA talent area commit to relevant activities from Years 1 to 4.

St. Anthony's Canossian Secondary School

St Anthony’s Canossian Secondary traces its roots to St Anna’s School, founded on Middle Road in 1879 for six children of poor parishioners. The Canossian sisters took over the girls’ school in 1894. The primary and secondary schools moved to adjoining Bedok North Avenue 4 premises in 1995; the secondary school gained autonomous status in 2002. These are shared historical roots, rather than evidence that the two schools offer the same programmes. The performing arts became part of the formal curriculum in 1998, and the school launched its arts niche and biennial Arts Alive! festival in 2004.

The current arts page says all lower-secondary students study Music and Drama, with eight performing arts CCAs providing further opportunities. Project work includes reflection on the creative process, while service learning connects performance with community activities. The school reports a LASALLE College of the Arts partnership since 2025, including contact with industry professionals and exposure to higher arts education. It also describes visits and workshops involving arts institutions. These are learning opportunities; the page does not establish guaranteed arts-school admission or the same external programme for every pupil.
