NEW DEVELOPMENTS
TEACHER CHILDCARE AIDE (TCCA)
The idea to chart a new vocational
pathway for graduates of Grace Orchard
(GOS) as Teacher Childcare Aide was
hatched in 2016. Currently, the project
is in its second year, the students are
receiving on-the-job training thrice a
week at PCS (Jurong West Childcare
Centre) and modular training ( three
hours) weekly at GOS. We are working
towards engaging more community
stakeholders to scale up the project.
ALICE LIM MOBILE LIBRARY
On 5 October 2018, in a move to bring
the fun of reading closer to our children,
the Alice Lim Mobile Library was
launched at TaRA@JP. This library, made
up of a transformable push cart, with the
surprise element of a character Milecila
and enchanting puppets, aims to bring
the joy of learning to a higher level. It is
generously sponsored by the family of
the late Mr Henry Lim, former president
of the Gerontological Society, in honour
of his wife, the late Mrs Alice Lim.
