Co-Curricular Activities
Vision
Developing Cedarians holistically through CCA Excellence.
Mission
Providing platforms and opportunities for every child to discover their interests and talents.
Role of Co-Curriculum
The Co-Curriculum complements the Curriculum. It consists of and provides students with experiential learning through programmes in Co-Curricular Activities. Learning that spans across the co-curriculur activities include our school values, social emotional competencies and the emerging 21st Century Competencies.
Purpose of CCA
The CCA Programme is an integral part of students’ holistic education. Participation in CCA enables students to discover their interests and talents while providing a platform for friendships and inclusive social integration of students from diverse backgrounds.
Well-organised and implemented, they can fuel in the individual a life-long love for a particular activity, be it a sport or a musical pursuit. This helps the individual to lead a balanced life in adulthood.
CCA is a key student development experience as it offers opportunities for rich and authentic CCE learning beyond the classroom. It is an excellent platform for students to learn core values, social and emotional competencies and the emerging 21st Century Competencies while progressively developing CCA-specific knowledge, skills, values and attitudes through sustained participation.
Each CCA has its specific objectives.
- Sports and Outdoor Education CCAs develop robustness, fair play and team spirit in students.
- The Arts CCAs instill in students a sense of graciousness and an appreciation for the rich culture and heritage of a multi-racial society.
- Uniformed Group activities aim to make good citizens of students by inculcating in them self-reliance, resilience, discipline and a spirit of service to others.
- Inventiveness, Language and other CCAs allow students to explore and extend their interests in wide ranging and specialised areas which may be knowledge-based or skills-based.
All CCAs emphasise social interaction by providing a common space for friendships and social integration amongst students of diverse backgrounds. Through CCA, students develop a sense of identity and belonging to the school.
