Community and Belonging at Winstedt
At Winstedt, we prioritise nurturing a strong sense of community and belonging among our students, parents, and staff. Our vision includes developing good character, moral values, and social responsibility within both the school and the wider community.
Service learning is integral to our educational philosophy, with a focus on fostering character and attitudes aligned with the 8 Personal Goals embedded within the IPC and IMYC curricula.
A Word from Two Year 6 Students…
“I think saving animals is important because without them, the planet will not thrive. It is diversity that helps maintain the earth’s beauty. A truly enjoyable experience that sparked more thoughts about animals – to feed or not to feed.”

“The fundraiser/showcase has been really eye-opening, teaching me how to safeguard the environment from extinction. I also felt a great sense of accomplishment when we managed to raise the funds. I even received a personal thank you note from Mandai Zoo!”

Having seen the benefits of service learning for both our students and the greater community, we are excited to expand service learning opportunities; our Senior School students have begun a project called “Changemakers”. Stay tuned!
