Сераңгун колледжі: Тарихы мен бірігуі

the junior college prior to its 2019 merger with Anderson Junior College

Serangoon Junior College (SRJC) was a junior college in Singapore, offering a 2 year course for pre university students leading up to GCE 'A' Level examinations. Founded in March 1988, it was the fourteenth junior college to be established in Singapore.

Serangoon Junior College was established in March 1988 as the fourteenth junior college in Singapore. This was complemented with the rise in admission standards of the college, from a cut off point of 20 in the 1989 intake to 11 in the 2016 intake at the annual Joint Admission Exercise (JAE). This was in view of the declining enrollment into junior colleges since 2014, attributed to the fall in Singapore's birth rate. As a result of the merger, Serangoon Junior College no longer admit students from 2018 to minimise the need for students to physically relocate to the new site. The merger process is to be completed by January 2019.

The vision, mission and values of SRJC was revised in 2016. Vision – Leaders and Learners driven with values and imagination Mission – Inspiring all students to have the passion to learn, the heart to serve and the courage to lead. Values Respect, Responsibility, Resilience, Integrity, Care, Humility

SR Global Classroom Experience (SR GCE) takes students’ learning beyond the shores of Singapore. With a service learning component designed into the programme, students are given opportunities to apply service learning within a larger community, while gaining cultural awareness and a global perspective. Destinations include Hong Kong, Java, Taiwan, Melbourne and Lijiang and vary depending on availability and safety. Since 2007, SRJC has established a twinning programme with Sacred Heart Canossian College in Hong Kong.

The WILL Run is an annual fundraising event founded in 2008 that is integral in SR's pursuit of perseverance and selflessness. The term WILL evokes the willingness of an individual to run at least 10 km to raise funds for the community and for the college building. The minimum annual total distance targeted for completion is set at 20,014 km – the distance from the North to South Pole.

Get REAL@SRJC, the service learning framework in SRJC, stands for Reaching out to the Environment, the Aged, and the Less fortunate. The strong emphasis in service learning is aligned to the college motto “To Learn, To Serve”.

The annual college fundraising event focuses on giving back to the community. Since 2008, the college has committed the first $50,000 of the donations collection to an identified beneficiary each year. The rest of the collection is channelled towards college improvements. The former annual event also incorporated the SR Friendship Games, which was an annual sports event participated actively by the staff and the student body.
