In Endeavour Primary School, we aim to inculcate the right values in our pupils and mould them into good citizens who contribute to the betterment of others and care for the environment. In our efforts of doing so, we seek the help of our team of diligent and reliable CCE ambassadors in taking on crucial roles to support their teachers and peers in these pertinent areas.
Every year, our teachers are tasked to nominate the CCE ambassadors from each class by selecting pupils who display exemplary behavior at all times and serve as a good role model to their peers. A training session is usually conducted at the beginning of each year for our CCE ambassadors where they undergo a briefing about their roles and responsibilities in supporting their teachers with school programmes, ensuring the cleanliness of the school and championing the school-wide cyber wellness outreach efforts.
In the classrooms, our CCE ambassadors play a crucial role in ensuring the cleanliness of their classrooms by encouraging their peers to follow a given checklist and execute their classroom cleaning duties diligently and consistently. Similarly, at the canteen, our CCE ambassadors play an important role in ensuring cleanliness and promoting values of care and responsibility by encouraging their friends to finish their food to prevent food wastage, throw the food waste into the swill bin and return their plates and cutlery into the correct trays and to do a wipe down after eating. In addition to ensuring the cleanliness of the school, our CCE ambassadors help promote care for the environment by reminding their peers to engage in recycling activities.
Next, our committed and reliable CCE ambassadors also take on an important role of assisting and supporting their Form, Co-Form and subject teachers with classroom activities involving the various CCE school programmes such as National Day, International Friendship Day, Racial Harmony Day and Total Defence Day. In their efforts of displaying the school values and serving as a good role model to their peers, our responsible CCE ambassadors play an active role in promoting Cyber Wellness by modeling safe and responsible online behaviours and channeling efforts into sharing stories and key messages in their classrooms with aims to promote an awareness of Cyber safety.

Endeavour Primary school celebrated Earth hour on Saturday, 22nd March 2021.This year’s theme is “Climate Change to Save Earth”. To support this event, there was an E- Assembly talk in school. In the next activity, pupils took part in creating their own toy model making project using recycling materials. They also did a short write- up on their toy models and their parents also joined in the fun to assist in the toy making process. The pupils then uploaded the pictures of the toys models during the March school holidays where they had an enriching and meaningful learning experience. All toy models submitted were rewarded with attractive tokens.
