CCA Programme in ZPS

CCA is an important part of our students’ holistic education. In ZPS, we offer a wide range of CCAs, catering to the varied interest and capabilities of our students. It is also our objective not only to teach them the CCA specific skills, but also to cultivate in our students the spirit of teamwork, integrity in their pursuit for excellence. Having the CCA experience with the other Zhonghuarians will also allow them to build camaraderie and desirable social behaviours.

While CCA is not compulsory in Primary Schools, we strongly encourage our students to participate in a CCA. We strongly believe that CCAs are important platforms to inculcate good values in our students, as well as to develop them with competencies to adapt to the demands of the 21st century.

Timeframe for CCA Work Year 2025

CCAs will commence in January 2025 and run till Oct/Nov 2025.
