Celebrating Excellence: Securing Gold and Silver Medals at WorldSkills Singapore 2023
Competing in the WorldSkills Singapore 2023 competition against other institutions has been an extraordinary journey, filled with invaluable experiences and life-changing lessons for the participants. It is not just a competition; it is also a testament to the power of collaboration, dedication, and personal growth with like-minded individuals.
On 27th to 29th September 2023, two of our Year 3 Nursing students, Glenda Lam and Rynn Tan, represented NYP and faced 4 other strong competitors from NP and ITE. After 3 intense-filled days of competing, Glenda and Rynn clinched Gold and Silver medals respectively. We rejoice with them, not just for their excellence in skills, but also for their resilience and determination! Congratulations to our winners!
Let’s hear from our winners!
