Participation in the student interest group complements academic learning by providing practical opportunities for students to refine the computing and/or ICT skills they learn in the classroom and apply them in a real-world context.

Short-term goals

•⁠  ⁠Build a team of dedicated students passionate for CTF competitions

•⁠  ⁠Compete in local CTF competitions to gain experience and recognition

Long-term goals

•⁠  ⁠Collaborate with other schools for joint training sessions

•⁠  ⁠⁠Host our very own inter-school CTF competition

Training session details (2025):

•⁠  ⁠Every Saturday from T4W4-T4W8

•⁠  ⁠⁠9.30am - 12.30pm

•⁠  ⁠⁠Online

Training session details for 2026 are tentative, but they will mainly be held online on Saturdays.

We welcome you to join! No worries if you haven’t participated in a CTF before, as long as you know how to code. To join, please fill in the form below by Friday, 10 October (T2W4):
