Sdp Through the school's Applied Learning Programme (ALP) in 'Design, Technology and Engineering' (DTE), students develop in-depth specialised knowledge in engineering and technology, and acquire critical and inventive thinking skills. From the DTE programme, students will learn how to Design, Code and Build. They will be exposed to Computer Aided Design (CAD) software, Arduino programming language and will get the opportunity to rapid prototype their ideas through the use of 3D printers and laser cutters. They will acquire critical 21st century skills such as design thinking, problem-solving strategies as well as creative and critical thinking techniques to solve real-world problems. For 2017, the school is implementing greater flexibility in subject offering at lower secondary levels. Eligible N(A) and N(T) students can take some subjects at a higher level starting from Secondary 1, based on their PSLE results. Beyond the start of Secondary 1, students can also do so if they do well in those subjects. 'Outdoor and Adventure Education' (OAE), the school's Learning for Life Programme (LLP), nurtures character attributes and specific skillsets through concrete experiences. Students step out of their comfort zones to develop personal qualities of resilience, initiative and self-reliance, and competencies in leadership and teamwork. They also acquire a range of skills in outdoor activities (e.g. kayaking, rock-climbing, orienteering). All students participate in a level camp every year to develop their physical, social, leadership and personal skills through integrated outdoor and adventure activities.

Ethos The school believes in providing an enriching and holistic educational experience for all students. In this respect, we have designed vibrant and engaging Instructional Programmes and Co-curricular Programmes that are aligned to the school's TEACH and LEARN Protocols, incorporating active and innovative learning strategies, as well as leveraging the Environment as the 3rd Teacher. We are resolute in forging a culture of care, learning and excellence that will develop our students to be learners, thinkers and leaders. In recent years, the school has achieved outstanding results in both the academic and co-curricular areas. The stellar growth of the school has been made possible by the single-minded commitment and dedicated care of the staff, and the efforts of the School Advisory Committee, Parent Support Group and Alumni. Through the many exciting experiences in Greendale, we are confident that students will learn to embrace our school motto: Serve the community; Lead by example; and Excel in all endeavours.
