SST Character Award 2012 - Nominations (Reminder)

Dear SST Students, 

Nominations for the SST Character Award 2012 are now open! 

SST Character Award 2012

The SST Character Award is open to all SST students who have demonstrated exemplary values, good character, civic responsibility and exemplified conduct that is in alignment to the school’s values, namely, Excellence, Empowering self and others and Expanding Learning Networks (3Es)

Recipients of the SST Character Award who are Singapore citizens may be nominated for the MOE Edusave Character Award. The MOE Edusave Character Award (ECHA) serves to recognise Singaporean students who have shown exemplary values, character and civic responsibility through their behavior and actions and who strive to overcome the odds. The ECHA serves to send a strong signal that good character is as important as academic achievements.
