Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we could not hold the annual National Day Observance Ceremony at the quadrangle like what had been done in previous years as mass gatherings were still not possible.
Improvement:
An initial idea was to arrange for the parade (marching in of the National Flag and School Flag, flag-raising ceremony and recitation of the pledge) to be carried out by a small group of Uniformed Group members and live fed from the quadrangle to all the classrooms via video streaming. After further discussion, it was decided that the entire parade segment will be pre-recorded and then screened via YouTube on the day of the school celebration on Friday, 7 August. The planning and execution of the entire segment was carried out by the following groups of people: 1. Teachers from the 3 Uniformed Groups, 2. National Education Team, 3. Mark Shone, the AV Students and Michael Chang, and Mrs Chek provided us with guidance.

What was the current need/gap that you were addressing? Our corporate video was very outdated and no longer relevant. 2. How had it been experimented and enacted? Instead of getting a professional vendor to produce the video, Principal challenged me to take it as a student-led project. After giving it much thought, given our students' talent and passion, I decided to take on the challenge despite the tight deadline and likely lack of certain resources or expertise. After getting Mark Shone and Mark Tan on board, they discussed with NYAV students who took on the task valiantly. Along the way, we had to make many edits to improve the production. But it truly exemplified the power of me as each of us had to learn on the go, and used our time management skills, and co...
Department/Committee/Team: Relations and Heritage Committee Leader(s): Deline and Debi Member(s): Hwee Yanne 1. What was the current need/gap that you were addressing? Parents have always voiced their interest to know more about what their daughters are experiencing in school and how they can play a more critical role in their growth and development throughout their schooling years. For our SEM 1.3, parents are our partners in nurturing our girls’ well-being and learning, and we want to give parents a comprehensive one-stop repository of information. 2. How had it been experimented and enacted? The online newsletter, NYConnect, has emerged as a platform in fostering strong partnerships between the school and parents. Designed to be a one-stop repository of positive parenting resources, NYConnect has enhanced communication and supported NYGH parents in their journey to nurture their daughters. NYConnect is dedicated to equipping parents with tools and strategies to deepen ...

What was the current need/gap that you were addressing? 1. What was the current need/gap that you were addressing? As GCP resumes after Covid, there are many areas we need to review and to refresh memory for the staff and students, so as to ensure meaningful and safe cross-cultural learning from all the trips. The Sec 2 and Sec 3 cohort trips were massive and involved a large number of staff, including EAS colleagues. Safety SOPs have been revised by MOE as well, to take into consideration new developments and trends all over the world, and to focus on developing students and teachers e21CC. Hence, there were needs for pre-trip briefings, talks, PD sessions, preparations for both staff and students. In addition, the resumption of such large skills also required the team to reestablish partnerships with our overseas partners a...
