Uniformed Groups

NCC (Sea)

TK NCC Sea was set up as a school based unit in 2000.

Our Activities:

Cadets in NCC Sea have the opportunity to participate in both land and sea activities, conducted by the school and NCC Sea headquarters.

The activities conducted include physical training to improve the cadets' fitness and basic drills and commands. Cadets also learn about nautical knowledge, orienteering skills and bends and hitches. Cadets learn how to work effectively with one another through organizing of camps and major projects and ceremonies.

The school organizes courses like abseiling clinic and basic/advanced kayaking awards and basic sailing proficiency award for the cadets.

Some activities conducted by the headquarters include expedition to Mount Ophir, round island kayaking expedition, individual marksmanship training, visits to Tuas Naval Base, building of rafts and remote control modeling of sailboats.

Our Achievements:

During the 2006 September holidays, NCC Sea HQ organized the Annual Sea Competition which comprises of 3 Bends and Hitches Events and 6 Kayaking Events. A total of 21 schools participated in this competition.

For the bends and hitches events, Tanjong Katong NCC SEA Unit ranked top among all schools that participated.

In the kayaking events, TK NCC SEA unit came in First for 5 out of the 6 relays contested for. With a total of 89 points, we once again emerged as the Overall Champion, hence making us the only school to have won the championship in 4 consecutive years.

Although many schools have trained hard and were eyeing for the overall championship, we, TK NCC SEA unit, remained unbeaten.

Our success owes much to the undying spirit, unconditional commitment, fiery passion and strong teamwork from the cadets, CLTs and teacher officers.

Our cadets trained extremely hard since March, on both Saturdays and Sundays, scorching under the hot sun, withstanding the harsh weather. Additional trainings on Mondays and Tuesdays were also incorporated to improve the mental and physical fitness of the cadets.

Congratulations to TK NCC SEA cadets for their excellent performance!
