Overview

To achieve our desired CCE outcomes, we engage students in our Values-In-Action (VIA) programme, 'iCare.

This programme focuses on ‘3 As’: creating ‘Awareness,’ providing opportunities for students to take ‘Action’ in service, and fostering an ‘Attitude’ of giving back to the community.

Our iCare lessons are carried out using the C. A. RE. approach:

  • Conversation: Teacher-led discussion on the iCare experience

  • Action: Different ways that students can take action

  • REflection: Reflect on what has been done and what students can continue to do

Through 'iCare,' we hope our students will become more aware of community needs, explore ways to show care, and make a difference.
