Friendship through Clean-Ship Service-Learning Project | 25 January 2026 | PAssion Wave @ Sembawang
As part of Tee Up’s commitment to environmental sustainability and community engagement, Republic Polytechnic Service-Learning Club students, in collaboration with PPT Lodge 1A, organised the “Friendship through Clean-Ship” service-learning project, with support from North West CDC through the Giraffe Fund.
Participants paddled along the Sembawang waterways, collecting plastics, cans, and other debris. Through this hands-on experience, they witnessed firsthand the impact of litter and learnt the importance of responsible waste disposal. By working side by side, residents and RP student volunteers strengthened teamwork, built mutual understanding, and fostered a shared sense of community ownership.
Many participants described the activity as both enjoyable and eye-opening, gaining a deeper appreciation of how small actions can create meaningful environmental impact.
We look forward to more collaborative initiatives with RP and North West CDC that bring together residents and youth volunteers to strengthen environmental responsibility, friendship, and community spirit.
