CCE Ambassadors

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.

CCE Ambassador programme and training

In Endeavour, it is of pertinent importance to provide our pupils and staff with a conducive environment. Hence, efforts have been made to ensure that our school is clean and safe. For our school, we have entrusted this crucial task to our team of reliable CCE Ambassadors.

Our CCE Ambassadors have been selected by the teacher of each class. They have been tasked to take on the crucial role of helping to ensure the cleanliness and safety of our school.

A training and briefing session was carried out in Term 1. In this session, the CCE Ambassadors were briefed on the intent of the programme as well as their roles and responsibilities. The roles and responsibilities include cleanliness in the class, in the canteen as well as cyber wellness.

In the class, our trusty CCE Ambassadors will have to assist their Form and Subject teachers on other CCE programmes such as Racial Harmony Day, Total Defence Day and National Day. They will also need to ensure that their peers help to keep the class clean.

In the canteen. our CCE Ambassadors have been tasked to encourage their friends to finish their food in order to reduce food wastage. They also help to ensure that their friends throw the food waste into the swill bin, remind their peers to do the wipe down after they have finished eating as well as remind their friends to return their plates and cutlery into the correct trays.

As for cyber wellness, our CCE Ambassadors are role models who actively influence their peers to create a safe and kind online community. They role model safe and responsible online behaviours as well as championing school-wide cyber wellness outreach efforts by sharing positive messages, stories and news.

P5 VIA Making Gifts for Elderly @ SWAMI

P5 VIA visit to the Old Folks’ Home has been part of the Applied Learning Programme P5 Interdisciplinary Project Work for the past years. Despite not being able to make a physical visit, our students thought of innovative ways to bring cheer and happiness to the elderly. During Form Teacher Guidance Period (FTGP) lessons, the students created beautiful coasters. The elderly were pleased to receive these gifts.

2020 Cleaner’s Appreciation Day

The school showed our appreciation towards our school cleaners yearly on Cleaner’s Appreciation Day. Our Primary 2 students gave out handmade cards containing handwritten thank-you notes and a box of tea-time treats to our school cleaners. The school also affirmed our security guards, lab technicians and administrators for their contribution to the school on this day. We hope that our students will consistently practise the habit of greeting and thank our unsung heroes.

Primary Five visit to Sree Narayana Mission Home.

A visit to the Sree Narayana Mission home is a yearly activity organised for our Primary 5 students. The purpose of the visit is to promote the virtues of respecting the elderly in the society. Through the visit, students get to learn a lot of stories shared by elderlies. They also get to experience interacting with the elderlies. At the same time, the visit provides a therapeutic session for the elderlies as they get to enjoy their time with the students through interactive sessions such as playing games and singing songs. This form of interaction provides the elderlies the opportunity to stay connected with the society and feel less lonely.
