Our Academics

Through the proficiency awards scheme, Youth Brigaders acquire skills and knowledge in various aspects of Leadership, Survival, National and Global Awareness and Community Spiritedness. The Proficiency Awards scheme is designed to develop Youth Brigaders in 4 aspects, which are Spiritual, Physical, Educational and Social, as according to how Jesus grew up, mentioned in Luke 2:52: "Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man."

for we know that they help us develop endurance.
And endurance develops strength of character,
and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation.”
