SGS Welcomes Sekolah Tinggi Perempuan Raja Isteri (STPRI), Brunei
It was a week filled with excitement as SGS hosted students and teachers from Sekolah Tinggi Perempuan Raja Isteri (STPRI), Brunei, for the Inaugural School Twinning Programme in May. Over five enriching days, our Brunei friends journeyed with SGS buddies to experience school life in Singapore, including hands-on Applied Learning Modules in Interior Design, Forensic Science, Early Childhood Education, and Business & Entrepreneurship. The week was filled with wonderful cultural exchanges, from a traditional kompang welcome and a gulingtangan performance by STPRI students, to a communal Nasi Ambeng meal and Teh Tarik-making session at Kampong Glam, whilst exploring iconic Singapore landmarks. We are grateful for the friendships forged and memories made and we look forward to many more years of meaningful ties between SGS and STPRI!

SGS celebrated International Friendship Day with a vibrant celebration of global connections! Students explored ASEAN cultures through interactive booths and CCE ambassadors brought global flavours to life sharing diverse perspectives through international cuisines. We were delighted that our friends from the International French School joined in the festivities, enriching our day with cultural games and food, and impromptu busking performances of French pop songs.
SGS Welcomes His Excellency Peter Storer, Ambassador of Austria
SGS had the pleasure of hosting His Excellency Peter Storer, Ambassador of Austria to Singapore, for an engaging and insightful talk on international diplomacy.
The session brought Social Studies concepts to life, as students deepened their understanding of diplomacy and international relations. Through the talk, interactive quiz, and Q&A session, they explored how nations built bridges, and how countries work together - in wide-ranging areas including trade, culture, and global initiatives - to bring about better lives for their people. Students were better able to appreciate the importance of respect, cooperation, and communication in shaping a more connected and harmonious world.

SGS Welcomes Choi Hung Estate Catholic Secondary School
SGS had the pleasure of hosting students and teachers from Choi Hung Estate Catholic Secondary School (Hong Kong SAR, China) as part of International Friendship Day (IFD) celebrations on 11 April 2025.
Our visitors participated in a special IFD concert and presented on their school, Co-Curricular Activities (CCA), and academic experiences. Together with their buddies, they attended lessons and enjoyed a hands-on experience when they proudly prepared and savoured Pad Thai during a Food and Consumer Education (FCE) lesson.
