Scouts

SCOUTS 

Scouting is a worldwide youth movement dedicated to helping young people discover, learn, and apply essential life skills through service and learning by doing. It promotes the holistic development of youths — physically, intellectually, emotionally, socially, and spiritually — through a non-formal, values-based educational programme founded on the Scout Promise and Law. 

At Greenridge, we provide Scouts with diverse opportunities to develop morally, physically, and cognitively through a variety of enriching experiences such as camps, donation drives, outdoor adventures, international exchange programmes, campfires, and outdoor cooking. 

CCA PROGRAMME FOR SKILLS, LEADERSHIP & CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT 

Diamond Jubilee Challenge Fund-raising / Job Week 

The Diamond Jubilee Challenge is a youth-led and adult-supported initiative where our Scouts will learn more about the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, discover their place in the community as well as what it means to be a Singaporean, and at the same time, contribute to “Creating a Better World”. 

The Scouts Annual Job Week serves to reinforce in our youth members the value of honest work, and in helping others. By providing a service to the community, Scouts invariably involve the community in their learning and development, which is a key component of the Scout Method. 

Group Camp 

The Group Camp is an annual camp organised by volunteers of The Fox Scout Group to develop the Scouts in an outside-classroom environment. During the camp, the Scouts will have the opportunity to be trained in self-reliance skills such as outdoor cooking, camp craft and orienteering. The Scouts will also develop team-building skills and foster friendships as they work with Scouts from Greenridge Secondary School and Zhenghua Secondary School​. 

National Patrol Camp 

Scout Troops from across Singapore will send their choice patrol to Sarimbun Scout Camp to participate in a jamboree-style camp that promises an unforgettable experience for Scouts across the country. The camp has a vibrant hub of concurrent activities, providing Scouts with a plethora of opportunities to explore, learn and grow. It is a camp where Scouts are challenged to do their best while keeping true to the spirit of the Scout Promise and Law.
