National Day 2026: Celebrating Our Singapore Story

Peicaians came together to celebrate Singapore’s 61st National Day in a morning filled with pride, energy and togetherness.

The celebrations began with our National Day Parade, with students from NCC, NPCC and Girl Guides taking centre stage in the march-past. The parade provided a meaningful reminder of the values and spirit that have shaped Singapore’s journey as a nation.

We were privileged to have Dr Edmond Tan, Chairperson of our School Advisory Committee, join us as our Guest-of-Honour. We were also delighted to welcome seniors from Lions Befrienders and members of our Parent Support Group, who joined our students and staff in the celebrations. Their presence added warmth and meaning to the occasion, bringing together different generations of the Peicai community as we celebrated Singapore together.

The concert segment brought the school to life with an exciting line-up of performances. Our Aeromodelling students wowed the audience with a spectacular flag fly-past, Drama brought Singapore’s history to life through a lively and engaging performance, while Band and Modern Dance showcased the talents and creativity of our Peicaians.

The Singapore Quiz, “How Well Do You Know Singapore’s History? Let’s Play the Singapore Quiz, Peicai Style!”, added an element of fun and friendly competition. Five staff members teamed up with students to test their knowledge of Singapore’s history and heritage, resulting in plenty of laughter, excitement and surprises along the way.

The morning ended on a high note as the entire school came together for community singing. With voices raised in unison, Peicaians celebrated not only Singapore’s journey but also the bonds that connect us as a school community.

This year’s National Day celebration was a reminder that Singapore’s story is one that we all have a part to play in. As we look ahead, let us continue to move forward with courage, resilience and a strong sense of togetherness.

Happy Birthday Singapore!
