THURSDAY: 1530 - 1800 HRS (Competition Team)The Debate Society, formerly a special interest group, is a newly-established CCA in 2017. The CCA aims to develop student-debaters who are able to think critically and speak skilfully. We train our students in the art of debating, focusing on the domains of research, speech, and working together in a team. We take part in debate competitions such as the Singapore Secondary Schools Debating Championships, Youth Debate Open and Raffles Debate Academy Under-14 Debating Championship. Every year, the students embark on VIA projects to pass on their debating skills and knowledge to the community by organising public speaking workshops or mentoring sessions for other youths or children from various organisations. In this CCA, the debaters are not only trained to be quick-witted and articulate speakers, but the many opportunities to work in teams also teach them the value of camaraderie and friendship.

Day / Time:
Mission: Infocomm members are equipped through collaboration, community engagement and skill development to be computational thinkers and work independently and as a group.
MONDAY: 1530 - 1800 HRS
THURSDAY: 1530 - 1800 HRSInfocomm Club aims to further develop the skills and competencies of students with greater interest and aptitude in computational thinking and robotics. The 4 – 5 years development programme allows students to deepen their computational thinking and robotics skills and knowledge, and to apply what they have learnt to design, code and build robotic solutions of increasing complexity to complete challenging missions and to address real world needs.
The training framework for Infocomm Club students details a clear progression of skills from introduction to computational thinking, programming and robotics in Sec 1, to deepening of programming and robotics skills in Sec 2 and 3, to coding and app development skills in Sec 4 and 5.
Students participate in different competitions to hone their skills and are selected based on their learning progress. Through the process of training for the competitions, students learn to apply their skills in new ways, leverage on team members’ strengths to complete complex missions and be resilient in the face of challenges to continue to invent better solutions.
Students also apply their skills to help others during community projects this will be led by the Secondary 3 and 4 seniors. Secondary 3 and 4 students will also take on the responsibility of developing their leadership skills through training and mentoring their juniors.Competitions
