Temasek Polytechnic (TP) students have made a significant impact at the WorldSkills Singapore 2025 competition, held from 3 to 5 April at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre. Competing against 265 of the nation’s top youths, TP’s contingent of 44 students secured an impressive haul of 10 Golds, 8 Silvers, 8 Bronzes, and 6 Medallions for Excellence. The Gold medals were awarded in categories such as Aircraft Maintenance, Autonomous Mobile Robotics, Cooking, and Web Technologies.
In addition to its success at WorldSkills, TP is marking its 35th anniversary with a series of initiatives focused on care and sustainability. TP Cares Week featured activities like a food donation drive, a beach clean-up at East Coast Park, and Project Refresh, which involved transforming homes for those in need. These efforts align with TP’s commitment to fostering an environmentally sustainable Singapore.
Throughout April, TP is celebrating Earth Day with a month-long series of activities aimed at promoting sustainability on campus. Initiatives include a Centralised Waste & Recycling Initiative, an Eco-Life Challenge encouraging sustainable habits, and an Eco-Treasure Hunt. Participants can also join Eco-Campus Tours to learn about TP’s green infrastructure, such as solar panels and rainwater harvesting tanks.
By extending Earth Day activities throughout April, TP aims to instil eco-friendly practices into everyday campus life, reinforcing its leadership in the educational sector’s green movement.
