id you know that Tanglin has an internship programme sponsored by TTS Foundation? Established in 2016, it gives our Alumni between the ages of 18-25 the opportunity to complete valuable work experience on campus. By participating in a 4 to 6 week long internship in a professional setting, the alumni are able to gain real-life experience and explore their desired career trajectory in a safe and familiar environment like Tanglin. Camille, Jing Hye, Daniel, Katelyn and Bhavika tell us their story.

Camille, 2021 Cohort, Infant School WHO: I joined Tanglin in Year 10 and recently graduated with the Class of 2021, having successfully completed my IB Diploma. WHAT: I decided to take up the Infant School internship at Tanglin as I thought that it was the perfect way to begin my gap year; being able to return to such a familiar environment, and gain valuable experience, all
while giving back to the community. WHY: I think that Tanglin’s internship programme is beneficial for graduates like myself as it is both an accessible and great way to gain work experience in an international school setting. I was able to develop new skills, meet so many new incredible people (both students and staff!), and grow as a person.
