Get to know each school
Kranji Secondary School
Kranji Secondary began in 1995 at Chestnut Drive Secondary before moving to 61 Choa Chu Kang Street 51 in 1996. It returned to its upgraded premises in December 2018 after PRIME works. Its ALP started in 2016 with a thinking curriculum and was repositioned in 2021 around design thinking for sustainable living. The history also records a community Mid-Autumn partnership dating from 2005. These milestones connect its current environmental projects and community leadership with longer-running strands of school life.
Lower-secondary pupils complete the year-long THINK programme, learning design thinking, research and information literacy before developing solutions to a sustainability issue. Published visits include farming and green-solution organisations, and pupils present work at a THINK carnival. Green Ambassadors are an interested group with additional responsibilities: facilitating an eco-trail, conserving Kranji Marshes, supporting a pollinator-friendly garden and teaching younger pupils about biodiversity. Those roles are more selective than the lower-secondary foundation. Some described campaigns have no clear event year, so the listed partners and visits are examples rather than an assured future itinerary.
St. Hilda's Secondary School
St Hilda’s traces its beginnings to Bethel English School, established on Ceylon Road in 1929. Archdeacon Graham White acquired it in 1934 and affiliated it to the Anglican Diocese. The school moved to Tampines and separated into primary and secondary schools in 1988; boys joined in 1989, and the two schools were officially opened in July 1990. In 2012, the secondary school’s Student Activity Centre opened with two indoor sports halls and a rooftop hockey pitch. Its 2024 ninetieth-anniversary programme included 90 Acts of Kindness. These milestones explain the school’s history without implying the primary and secondary curricula are interchangeable.
The iTHink Applied Learning Programme began with Secondary 1 in 2015. Its current description gives a progression: Secondary 1 has weekly Drama in Education lessons involving scripts, improvisation and speaking, plus an oracy project culminating in a podcast. Secondary 2 combines a local heritage learning journey with researched class debates. Secondary 3 brings together Social Studies issue investigation, CCE service and English advocacy in an integrated project. Pupils examine an issue, propose solutions and act on recommendations. These are specified learning activities; the stated aim of producing confident, caring and disciplined leaders is an aim rather than a measured result for every pupil.
