Overview of the CCA:
Queensway Secondary School National Cadet Corps comprises more than 80 dedicated members.
Our core values are:
1. Loyalty to the country
2. Uprightness
3. Leadership
4. Discipline
5. Commitment and Responsibility
6. Care for fellow cadets
7. Adventurous spirit
8. Safety.
Leadership transfer!
Members are taught to display these core values during NCC’s trainings and camps. For instance, the core value of discipline must be adhered to during our weekly training sessions. The cadets develop resilience as they go through a series of physical conditioning exercises and strength training, such as pushups, planks, and sit-ups to prepare themselves for their yearly Physical Training test.
In 2025,
Secondary 1 cadets participated in Camp F.O.R.G.E, where they enjoyed fun and exciting activities such as the Flying Fox, Abseiling and High Elements.
In Camp S.T.E.E.L, the Secondary 2 cadets experience the paintball 5-versus-5 match, where the Secondary 2 cadets learned the value of teamwork, as they had to work together closely in order to achieve victory.
The cadets also have the chance in using the Air Rifle at the Yishun SAFRA.
Secondary 3 Cadet Leaders stepped up to teach the Junior Cadets and Senior Cadets key skills involved in the Total Defense Bronze and Silver courses. As their Total Defence Gold, they have to make arrangement to do their VIA with Rainbow Centre.
They were exposed to hands-on weapons training on the SAR-21, as well as how to deal with gun jams. They have passed their IMT before they can attend the 100 metres live range.
Suitable cadets would be selected to attend the Advanced Drill Instructors' Course. In addition, they have to pass their Specialists Assessment Course in order to qualify to attend the Senior Specialists Leadership Course.
Selected Senior Cadet Leaders would be selected to be in the Senior Leadership Committee to lead the NCC Unit in school. Leadership selection and training start as early as Secondary 2 so that leadership roles can be assigned at the beginning of Secondary 3 before the Secondary 4 cadets step down towards the end of term 2.
