SCHOOL HISTORY Cedar Girls’ Secondary School was founded as a single-session school with a pioneer batch of 507 students in 1957 at the lush premises of Sennett Estate. Housed in a 3-storey classroom block with only 18 teachers, its humble beginnings did not stop Cedarians from achieving a reputation for excellence and discipline. Led by principals who brought out the best in Cedarians, the school is well known for offering students a holistic education where Cedarians not only excel academically but were also known for her prowess in sports and the arts.

PRINCIPALS WHO LED CEDAR GIRLS FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH  MRS M. N. OEHLERS 1957 to 1958 As the first Principal, Mrs Oehlers laid a strong foundation for the school. She also gave the school its enduring motto “Honesty, Perseverance, Courtesy” and designed the distinctive uniform that is the pride of Cedarians today.  MRS P. C. TAN 1958 to 1976 The longest serving Principal in Cedar Girls’ history, Mrs Tan oversaw the growth and development of Cedar Girls which forged the unique Cedar identity of self-discipline and unwavering fortitude. Under Mrs Tan’s leadership, the school become known for her academic excellence and sporting prowess.  MRS NIVA DUTT 1977 to 1983 Mrs Dutt introduced many initiatives with the aim of nurturing all-rounded students. 1977 also saw Cedar Girls being recognized as one of Singapore’s top 20 schools, a testimony of the school’s success in providing an excellent educational experience.  MDM TAN CHEN CHOO 1984 to 1996 Mdm Tan oversaw the modernizing of the school with the completion of the new school building and facilities. In 1992, Cedar Girls became a single-session school. Cedar Girls became one of the Top 10 secondary schools. In 1996, Cedar Girls achieved autonomous status, which provided the school with the flexibility and opportunities to infuse more rigour into its programmes to nurture and challenge the capabilities of every Cedarian.

 MRS TAY SOR HAR 1997 to 2000 In recognition of the importance of the role of teachers in the education of Cedarians, Mrs Tay put in place a roadmap for the professional development and training for staff at Cedar. The Home-School-Link was also established to nurture a strong partnership with parents in the joint effort to develop Cedarians.  MS SUSAN LEONG 2001 to 2005 Building on the strong foundation, Ms Leong identified the strategic thrusts of the school in the domains of value-added academic achievements, character development and staff development which brought the school to greater heights.  MRS OU YANG GEOK CHENG 2006 to 2012 Under Mrs Ou Yang’s leadership, Cedarians took on a global outlook with the expansion of overseas immersion programmes and innovative use of IT in teaching and learning. In 2010, the school moved into its newly renovated campus with enhanced facilities to support the wide range of programmes offered. In 2012, in partnership with Victoria School and Victoria Junior College (Victoria-Cedar Alliance), Cedar Girls became a dual track school offering both O-level and Integrated Programme. The availability of these two tracks means that all Cedarians were given the opportunity to blossom and realise their fullest potential under an education programme that best suits their learning needs.  MS CHENG HWEE YEANG 2013 to 2019 Ms Cheng saw through the full implementation of the Victoria-Cedar Alliance (VCA) Integrated Programme, providing students with a curriculum that develops them into social innovators and passionate learners. The VCA partnership was deepened and joint events such as the SG50 celebrations were held regularly. Cedar also celebrated the important milestone of its 60th anniversary, where stories from various alumni over the years were consolidated to form Our Cedar Story. Under Ms Cheng’s leadership, Cedar emerged as a dual track school of choice with all round excellence. In 2017, the school also launched the Center for Social Innovation as a nexus for social innovation, to inspire, create and share practices that will instill a mindset and disposition towards innovative practices for social causes. In line with this, the school also became the first school to introduce the Direct School Admission for Social Innovation in 2018.  MRS CHAN-TEY KAH HWEE 2020 - Present

SCHOOL BADGE

The school badge is held up by three key virtues which also make up the school motto — Honesty, Perseverance, Courtesy.

The school badge is designed in gold, green and blue.

Gold symbolizes the excellence that the school as a whole strives for and grey, the balance of mind and heart needed in the strive for excellence.

Together, the two colours combine to reflect the spirit of Cedar Girls — brilliant but balanced.

Blue and green, which denote the natural colours of our environment,

symbolize the external world that Cedar Girls will prepare the students for. A book engraved right at the top of the badge is a symbol of knowledge

and the academic excellence, which the school as a community is committed to. A sturdy Cedar tree with its roots symbolizes the adult that Cedar Girls seeks to nurture — an adult who is steadfast in character,

strong in their sense of belonging to the school and country, and gracious in their nature, like the fragrant Cedar.

SCHOOL SONG Unite Cedarians unite

We’ll persevere all the way

Make sure our torch is burning bright Courteous, honest everyday Forever loyal ever true

For Cedar our best we’ll do Excel in work and in games

Always strive for greater fame

Hold high the banner gold and grey Progress we must all the way Forever loyal ever true

For Cedar our best we’ll do The future beckons us on Full of promises beyond

Though fear and dangers still abound With strength and grit we’ll surmount Forever loyal ever true

For Cedar our best we’ll do CHORUS

To Cedar Girls we belong

With pride and love let’s sing this song Let us unite and together vow To dedicate our loyalty now

CEDAR BEHAVIOUR POLICY OUR BELIEF In Cedar we advocate a growth mindset and believe that every Cedarian is in control of her own abilities and can learn and improve. We seek to develop strong social and emotional competencies in every Cedarian with an emphasis on the development of moral and performance character. We strive to nurture Cedarians into Women of Character and Wisdom who through their actions and behaviour model thoughtful leadership practices and qualities. Guided by the school motto, honesty, courtesy and perseverance, we hope to nurture Cedarians who are able to make sound decisions in life. The school provides a positive and supportive environment with opportunities to exercise personal responsibility. Our learning environment is structured so as to enable our students to develop life skills and learn collaboratively. Every Cedarian must play her part well and be committed to interact in a positive and mutually supportive manner with others around her. The school also sees parents as key partners in supporting all its efforts to develop responsible and self-disciplined Cedarians. 1. ATTENDANCE Students can only benefit fully from the curriculum put in place by being present, punctual and participating actively in all these programmes. The school should be informed of any absence from school and failure to notify or validate absence may be treated as truancy and appropriate consequences will be meted out. Students should not leave the country before the end of term. If parents wish to take a student out of school before the end of the school term, approval must be sought before making plans. Flag-raising ceremony The daily singing of the National Anthem, School Song and reciting of the National Pledge are ways to inculcate and demonstrate our love for school and nation. It is a solemn start to the school day reminding us of the ideals we stand for and values we should live by. All students are to attend this ceremony with respect and pride. During the flag-raising ceremony, students are to: • stand at attention • sing the National Anthem • recite the National Pledge with their right fist clenched at the heart if they are Singapore citizens

If an extension is needed, the student needs to negotiate with the teacher concerned, citing her reasons for the extension. Students are responsible for finding out from their teachers the work they missed during their absence from class as soon as possible, and make up for the work according to the teacher’s instructions. A student who repeatedly submits her homework late for more than 3 times within a term will be required to stay in school to complete her homework. 6. ASSESSMENT Assessment is an integral part of the student’s learning and students should attain an expected standard for each subject area.

Her absence must be covered by a medical certificate. Only medical certificates from doctors registered with the Singapore Medical Council will be accepted. Otherwise, a zero mark will be assigned. All Cedarians are responsible for holding the values of academic integrity in all academic undertakings. Students should not plagiarise or pass off as their own, the writing or ideas of another, without acknowledging or crediting the source from which the ideas are taken.

LEADERS OF CHARACTER Leadership is not about personality; it is about behaviour — an observable set of skills and abilities. Become the best leader you can be. The legacy you leave is the life you lead. Leadership can be a powerful tool for good — whether leading a team or developing your individual potential to achieve your personal best. The Cedar Leadership Experience (CLE) aims to put every Cedarian through an extensive and rigorous leadership programme guided by the 5 Practices of The Leadership Challenge (TLC). At the different tiers of training, Cedarians progress from discovering self, to leading a team and to being an active contributor who can influence their peers within and beyond school.

MODEL THE WAY Cedarians create standards of excellence and then set an example for others to follow. We set interim goals so that people can achieve small wins as we work towards larger objectives. INSPIRE A SHARED VISION Cedarians passionately believe that they can make a difference. We envision the future, creating an ideal and unique image of what the team/community can become. We breathe life into our visions and get people to see exciting possibilities for the future. CHALLENGE THE PROCESS Cedarians search for opportunities to change the status quo. We look for innovative ways to improve the organization. In doing so, we experiment, take risks and accept failures and mistakes as learning opportunities.

16

ENABLE OTHERS TO ACT Cedarians foster collaborations and build spirited teams. We actively involve others and understand that mutual respect is what sustains extraordinary efforts; we strive to create an atmosphere of trust and human dignity. We strengthen others, by making each person feel capable and powerful. ENCOURAGE THE HEART To keep hope and determination alive, Cedarians recognize the contributions that individuals make. In every winning team, the members need to share in the rewards of their efforts, so Cedarians celebrate accomplishments. Cedarians also create clear goals and work together as a team to achieve them.

17

STUDENT LEADERSHIP BOARDS CEDAR PREFECTORIAL BOARD (CPB) Prefects are involved in instilling a sense of pride and discipline in the Cedar community through their exemplary behaviour that shapes the positive school culture in Cedar. As role models to Cedarians, the prefects continue to inspire and challenge the student community to live out the school’s shared values. Besides overseeing the daily discipline and flag-raising ceremony, CPB is also actively involved in the planning of key school events such as Orientation, Welcome Back Day and Youth Day, along with other leadership boards. They also provide platforms to reflect the voice of Cedarians through Our Cedar Conversation (OCC) and Student Leaders’ Time. They serve the school with pride and are active agents of change, seeking to improve processes in Cedar for the betterment of the student population. PEER SUPPORT LEADERS BOARD (PSB) Peer Support Leaders look into the well-being of the Cedarians by demonstrating the values of compassion and empathy. They are selected based on their ability to relate well to others as well as their passion to build a community within the school where no one is excluded. And they aim to build a culture of peer support in relationships through peer bonding, peer influencing and peer helping. Some of the school-wide initiatives helmed by the board include We’re Grooting for You!, Hearts and Hugs Day and Welfare and Wellness Week. Across the student leadership boards, peer support leaders participate in the planning of orientation and welcome back programmes for all levels, Blue, Yellow, Grey Day as well as Staff Day celebrations.

18

MONITRESS COUNCIL (MC) The Cedar Monitress Council consists of class monitresses who are elected by their classmates and teachers. Each class monitress leads her peers in different aspects of the school experience. The Monitress of Management oversees class discipline and day-to-day administrative tasks. The Monitress of Peer Support and Relationships focuses on building strong bonds and healthy relationships among classmates. Lastly, the Monitress of Advocacy leads the class-based advocacy of school initiatives and projects. Anchored by their vision of transforming classes into families, the Cedar Monitress Council aims to foster class unity through year-round activities. Monitresses also uphold class discipline by being role models and by promoting the school values. SPORTS AND HEALTH LEADERS BOARD (SHLB) The Sports and Health Leaders Board comprises student leaders who are sports and health enthusiasts. As an inspiration for Cedarians to be physically fit and healthy, the Sports and Health Leaders are role models and advocates for physically active and healthy lifestyle habits through campaigns and events incorporating exercise, games and play. Some of their signature events include the morning GLOW (‘Get Lit On Weekdays’) workouts, Sports Carnivals and Unstructured Play.

I will succeed in...

Consider the following points as you write down your learning goals for 2023: • Choose specific and effective startegies to achieve success and decide when and how you will use them. • Consider the resources you will need and where you can get them. • Have a vision of success and know how to measure the progress. • Plan to review your progress, get feedback, and reflect on how you can adjust your actions so that you can continue to grow. 1

MY SUPPORT SYSTEM The people, places and things that can help and support us are important especially during uncertain or stressful times. In the given box, make a collage of someone, some place or something that supports you. Take time to think about what you can do or how you can support others too!
