Co–Curricular Activities
Co-Curricular Activities (CCA) is an important component of character education in Spectra Secondary School, and forms a part of the holistic, well-rounded education that we seek to provide our students.
Objectives of CCA:
- Opportunity to develop core attitudes, skills and knowledge (ASK) relative to their CCA, through authentic learning experiences.
- Platform for students to learn about themselves and others beyond the classroom
- Platform to forge healthy friendships and team spirit
- Opportunity to develop leisure and lifetime interests
By participating in a CCA, students will be able to:
- Acquire new knowledge and talent areas
- Develop their leadership capacity.
- Demonstrate school values and role model school outcomes
- Improve emotional and physical well being
- Learn valuable life skills
CCA Policy Spectra Secondary:
- It is mandatory for every student to participate in at least one CCA.
- Students must attend all CCA activities.
- Absence from CCA must be supported by medical certificates or parents’ letters, which must be submitted to the CCA teacher promptly.
- Every student is expected to be committed and contribute actively to his/ her CCA that he/ she has chosen.
- Students may seek approval from HOD PE and CCA to take up a second CCA in school.
