From student showcases and community events to important milestones across both campuses, these occasions reflect what makes UWCSEA special: a community that supports one another and shares a commitment to making a positive difference. Thank you to everyone who made these moments possible, both behind the scenes and on the ground. Flip the page to explore the many exciting highlights from the year that have kept us connected.
Dover Campus
The annual Community Fair was a lively celebration that brought together students, families, alumni, and staff. With student performances, a busy vendor market, and chances to connect with Service and community partners, it was a great reminder of how much we can achieve when we come together.
OPUS 2025, the annual High School arts showcase, gave us an evening full of music and talent. With performances from the Symphonic Band, Phoenix Orchestra, Senior Strings, Chamber Players, Cantabile (a cappella choir), Singers (choir), Percussion Ensemble, and Senior Jazz Bands, our students brought their passion and hard work to the stage. A huge well done to all our performers!
East Campus
The Family Festival filled the campus with community-run stalls, interactive games, and outstanding student performances. Co-created by students and the Parents’ Association, the annual event celebrated cultural diversity, connection, and giving back, with proceeds supporting UWCSEA community initiatives. It was a true expression of the inclusive, service-oriented spirit that is central to our UWCSEA identity.
Dragon Scales, put on by the East Campus Music Department at the Esplanade Recital Studio, was a celebration of the music and creativity that thrive in our community. The High School Chamber String Ensemble played beautiful pieces like Suite for Piano and String Orchestra and Meditation from Thais, while the High School Jazz Band kept things lively with music by Cory Wong. The vocal group Bersama added a soulful touch with A Little Jazz Mass, and some incredible solos from East Campus musicians made the night even more special.
Across the College
More than 800 students, parents, and staff attended this year’s PA Careers Fair at East Campus, where over 70 professionals shared insights from more than 20 fields. Panel discussions on topics like Technology, Healthcare, and Sustainability, along with workshops on CV writing and interview skills, gave students a chance to explore their future pathways.
During Careers Week, organised by the UWCSEA Alumni team, 25 alumni took time out of their busy schedules to share their career journeys and insights with our Grade 10–11 students. From sports scientists to marine biologists, they joined us in person and virtually, showing what’s possible after UWCSEA.
At the Kishore Mahbubani Speaker Series (KMSS), Prof. Cheong Koon Hean, Chair of the Lee Kuan Yew Centre for Innovative Cities, shared insights on urban innovation and city planning. With student panellists, she discussed how cities like Singapore can address challenges such as ageing populations and limited space, sparking meaningful discussions about the future of our communities.
