SERVICE-LEARNING CHAMPION (SLC)

School Levels

Secondary, Pre-U

The PAYM Service Learning Champion (SLC) programme was started in 2006 to instil important life skills in our youths, prepare them to be contributing members to our society, and become our leaders for tomorrow.

Details

Students will be going through physical or online courses conducted by professional trainers to equip them with important skills before embarking on their Service Learning journey. Guided by experienced PAYM Youth Leaders, students will gain a deeper understanding of the community they live in. Thereafter, students can plan and execute service learning projects, including online programming to benefit those who need help and address real community needs.

Learning Objectives

Students will be able to build a deeper understanding of the community they live in and play an active role in making a difference to the community and the lives of others with the guidance of PAYM Youth Leaders.

The Service-Learning Champion Programme enabled our students to link up with beneficiaries and events in the constituency, allowing them to plan for activities and address real needs of the communities. Students also received constructive feedback from Limbang Youth Network which was valuable in helping them learn how to adapt and solve problems.
