Dear students,
Welcome back to SST in 2021! We hope that you have had a good break and are looking forward to seeing your friends and teachers back in school! :)
As you adjust to a new normal in school, here are some reminders when you report to school on 4 Jan 2021 at 8.40am.
Preparing for the School
1. Your Journey to School
You are advised to set off earlier than usual from home for school as you may encounter delays due to safe distancing measures on public transport and safe management measures by the school when you arrive.
Please familiarise yourself with the safe measurement measures on the buses and trains if you are taking public transport.
2. Things to pack:
Bring your own kit (see list below) and avoid sharing essential items to prevent cross-contamination.
Face Mask
Reusable bag (eg. a plastic “sandwich” bag or paper bag) to store your mask and/or face-shield for hygiene purposes. Label your name and class on your reusable bag.
Oral Digital Thermometer
Hand sanitiser
Wet wipes
A box of tissue paper for wiping down of your learning area(s)
Remember to bring a book for reading.
3. Attire and Grooming
A gentle reminder for all students to be appropriately attired in your school uniform and groomed when you report for school.
4. Safe Management Measures in School
All students are expected to play their part as a responsible member of the SST community by complying with the Safe Management Measures:
4. Social Responsibility:
Remain at home if you are feeling unwell and seek medical advice.
DO NOT come to school if you are on Leave of Absence (LOA), Stay Home Notice (SHN), Home Quarantine Order (HQO) and Approved Absence (AA).
DO NOT come to school even if you are well but one of your adult household members (18 years old and above) shows flu-like symptoms. Please have your parents inform your form teacher or contact the General Office when this situation arises.
Check and monitor your own temperature daily.
5. Maintaining a Safe Distance at All Times
Abide by all social distancing measures when commuting between home and school
If you take the MRT to school, you are encouraged to walk to and from Dover MRT station and especially from SST to Dover MRT station to school if the weather permits to avoid crowding at the bus-stop.
Maintain social distancing from others at the school gate when entering and leaving the school.
When buying food, obey queue markers on the floor of the canteen for safe distancing. You are encouraged to join the queue that is cleared faster.
To facilitate the quick clearance of queues, most canteen stalls will be offering a fixed standard menu on a pick-and-go basis. You are advised to plan ahead so as to avoid browsing to see what is being offered by each stall.
6. Practising Good Hygiene Upon Arrival in School
Wash hands with soap and water or clean hands with hand sanitiser
Report directly to your classroom.
No playing of sport games (free/ unstructured play) or board games.
Wipe down your desk area.
Wash hands with soap and water or clean hands with hand sanitiser after wipe-down.
Attire and What to Bring
Attire:
Students are allowed to wear primary school uniform and physical education attire if they are unable to purchase SST school attire.
Students are only allowed to wear covered shoes of any colour to school.
For jackets, students are only allowed to wear the SST School Jacket.
Important Notes
For students under medication or with special medical requirements, please specify in the medical declaration form (attached to the parental consent form). Students will have to alert a teacher before taking any medication. SST will not administer any medication for students.
If you would like to wear a jacket within the SST Campus, please buy the SST School Jacket from the bookshop as no personal jackets should be worn.
No valuables (e.g., Learning Devices/MacBooks, gaming devices, MP3 players) should be brought to school. Mobile phones should be brought for emergency communication, but its usage will only be permitted during certain times during the camp. An emergency mobile number will be provided in lieu of that.
A working thermometer should be brought to school everyday for daily temperature taking.
Bring your own rag for wipedown activities.
Unless eating or undergoing strenuous activities, masks should be worn at all times in school.
Please practice social responsibility and remain at home if you are feeling unwell and seek medical advice.
Dear Students,
The Multi-Ministry Task Force on COVID-19 announced on 20 October 2020 that schools have been identified as one of the venues where TT-SE is required due to high human traffic and prolonged periods of contact between individuals. As we move towards Phase 3 re-opening and more activities resume, it is essential for the widespread adoption of key digital contact tracing tools to detect COVID-19 clusters quickly.
TT-SE will complement existing Safe Management Measures in all MOE schools from January 2021. All staff, students and visitors will be required to use the TT App or Token in school from January 2021. During the end-of-year school holidays, students/staff/visitors can use the TT App or Token, or scan their NRIC/Student pass for entry to schools.
Please note that the collection of tokens is only available at your respective constituency community centres/clubs (CCs). There is no need to rush to the CCs to collect the tokens. You are strongly encouraged to check the TokenGoWhere website (www.Token.gowhere.gov.sg) to find out which is your designated collection venue, as well as the opening schedules of the collection centres before heading down to the CCs.
You can refer to the MOE FAQs for further information on the implementation of the TT-SE and other safe management measures in school.
We appreciate
your support in this nationwide effort. Thank you.

Dear Students,
As CCA resumes, the canteen operators have been informed to prepare additional food for students staying back after school. You are strongly encouraged to purchase and consume your lunch in school to prevent food wastage. This is also a good way to show support to our canteen vendors who have been tirelessly serving us every day.
Thank you!
