Uniformed Groups

Uniformed Group CCAs aim to make good citizens of students by providing authentic learning experiences which will help them develop important qualities such as self-reliance, leadership, resilience, discipline, teamwork and a spirit of service to others.

We offer the following Uniformed Groups CCAs:

Girl Guides (Brownies)

Brownies is a uniformed group CCA for girls that nurtures character development, builds practical life skills, and encourages meaningful contributions to the community. At New Town Primary School, we aim to help our members grow into confident, responsible, and independent individuals.   

Objectives 

Our activities are guided by the 5-Point programme, which focuses on: 

• Personal and social development 

• Home responsibilities 

• Community involvement 

• International understanding 

• Outdoor exploration 

Programme Highlights 

Each year, our Brownies participate in key events such as World Thinking Day and the National Brownie Revel, where they connect with other Brownies and Girl Guides from other schools. They also take part in our annual cookie sales, where they gain valuable presentation and entrepreneurial skills.

Students’ Experiences 

“I love Brownies because I enjoy going out and spending time with my friends and teachers. I also like when we get to sell cookies because the money is used to help others.”  - Kimberly Tesanee Brudermann 

“I like that we have fun and the activities in Brownies that help us be more confident.” – Elaine Law Hui Xin 

Red Cross (Youth)

Red Cross (Youth) aims to build a community of young leaders who are achievers, socially responsible and embrace humanitarian values. Values such as compassion and empathy are emphasised through various CCA sessions. Our members are equipped with the necessary first aid knowledge such as dressing simple wounds and tying arm slings. They are also provided with opportunities to apply their knowledge such as providing first-aid support during school events such as Sports Day. Our members are also given opportunities to demonstrate their proficiency in various competitions such as the Red Cross National First Aid Competition.
