STEPPINGSTONES TO THE GREAT OUTDOORS
UWCSEA's Outdoor Education programme gets back on track
This year our Outdoor Education Department launched its first overnight, off-campus trips since the start of the pandemic, starting with local overnights in Singapore, before moving further afield to expeditions in Malaysia. Once more, students were able to participate in the impactful outdoor education activities that are a fundamental part of the UWCSEA experience. Overnights at Sarimbun Scout Camp in Singapore allowed students to develop expedition skills and connect to nature without crossing the border. Once the due diligence was completed to ensure international trips could start again, groups returned to our 5-day trips in Gopeng and Tioman, Malaysia—expeditions that are surely fondly remembered by many of our alumni!
