Example of Past Initiatives

• Fitness Fiesta 2022: A collaboration between SUSS OWLs and various CGs, the event encouraged fitness in a fun and engaging manner through the various activity stations. The aim was to promote physical and mental well-being through engaging in sports/physical activities, impart important values that students can gain through sports/physical activity, and served as an avenue for students to relieve stress before the upcoming exam period.
• SUSS Mascot Challenge 2017/2018: A student-initiated project that was conceptualised to bring together the SUSS Full-time students in spirit and identity. The aim was to have a SUSS mascot that will reflect the core values of SUSS as well as the 3Hs.
• Project Collegiate: Created in 2015 in a bid to improve the identity and cohesiveness of the school. The student group aspired to leave a legacy for their very young college, and create a symbol that then-UniSIM College students could identify with. A T-Shirt Design competition was launched, with prizes for the best designs, before UC shirts were then printed and sold to any interested students.

The Outward Bound Leadership and Service Award celebrates and recognises youths with outstanding contributions in leadership and service within our community. Outstanding student leaders are offered a scholarship to participate in the internationally-renowned 21-day OBS Classic Challenge Course and are required to fulfil a 3-month post-course service project.

Youths will get to hone their leadership capabilities and broaden their community perspectives by implementing projects to address community needs. For more information about the OBS Leadership and Service Award, see here.

The internationally recognised Award is designed to encourage and motivate young people to develop personal qualities of self-reliance, perseverance and a sense of responsibility to themselves, society and the nation. There are three levels of the NYAA Programme – Bronze, Siler, and Gold. All awards must be completed before the participant’s 30th birthday, whereby all activities and projects must be carried out before then.
