| Sdp | HS has a strong conviction in character excellence as the school believes that strong values will provide students the impetus towards academic excellence. Therefore, the school's Learning for Life Programme - Community Youth Leadership programme, "GRC in Action, A Hougean Way of Life", provides a sustained and enhanced values education progressively over 4/5 years. Leveraging the 3Es approach to VIA (Enrich Minds, Encourage Hearts, Engage Hands), students take ownership of their involvement by understanding the needs of the community, co-constructing with and mentoring their peers to bring about awareness, action and advocacy in a community need. One signature event is the Secondary 3 Overseas Service Learning where students plan and serve in countries in the region. In order to nurture our Hougeans to be confident speakers, the school has embarked on an exciting journey in our Applied Learning Programme, "English Communication Skills through Authentic Learning" to promote communication skills using real life learning platforms. By furnishing our students with authentic settings and problems, they will be able to acquire useful and portable communication skills. The programme includes broadcasting, public speaking, debates, drama and journalism. HS provides a robust Teaching & Learning curriculum that focuses on experiential learning. Programmes include ICT-based multimedia project work: blogs, audio and video podcasts, learning journeys, learning experiences through critical reading, creative writing and strategic oral communication workshops, Sec 1 Math Trail, Sec 2 Maths Magic, HS Math Talent Programme, ELEMENTZ Science Research Conference and Exhibition, Funtasia (Science Fun Day), IHL Outreach Programme to University and Polytechnics, Humanities Inquiry Learning (Social Studies, Elective Geography/History), Earth Week, Life Run Carnival, Sec 2 Adventure Camp, Sports Education Programme, Inter-class Games, Interdisciplinary Project Work and SciTechHuMatics. |
