      From this bottom link, I wonder why he referred to Victoria School as \"Victoria Secondary School\". All old boys of VS knew that VS is never known as Victoria Secondary School. Just wonder if it's the same VS in S'pore he is refering to?

        Think it's just a common mistake by most since VS is a secondary school, many thought that it's Victory Secondary. ๐Ÿ˜‰

          A Glorious Day for Victoria School

          Our NPCC and NCC (Land & Sea) Victorians have been training hard for the NPCC Campcraft Competition and NCC Footdrill Finals respectively.

          After several weeks of dry spell, it rained today. But the rain did not stop Victorians from doing their best from weeks of hardwork and practice.

          Our NPCC boys went into the finals of the bi-annual NPCC Campcraft 2010 as the defending Champion. Schools were allowed 2 teams each. This year, both our teams made it to the top 10 finalists. We not only clinched the Champion trophy again, we swept the 1st and 2nd positions! This is a first for any school and history is made today! Many NPCC old boys were there to support and the atmosphere was electric!

          Both our NCC Land and Sea Units also made it to the Frestyle Footdrill Finals together after an outstanding performance at the zone level. NCC Land took the 3rd place while NCC Sea came in 10th position. Well done, boys!

          Congratulations to all the Victorians who trained and fought hard for our school. Thank you to all the teachers-in-charge and old boys for the guidance and care for Victorians.

          It rained today. But the Victorian Spirit was shining brightly as ever.

          Nil Sine Labore.

            Dear Parents, Old Boys and Victorians,


            Victoria School wins Double National X-Country Championship Titles!

            Yes! We did it! The National X-Country B and C Division Challenge Shields have come home to us.

            It was an exhilarating day! Our runners ran a great race. The teachers, the student leaders, the parents and the Sec 4 supporters were great. Kudos to our teachers-in-charge!

            The VS flag is unfurled and flying high! Sweet Victory, Victorians!

            This is "Nil Sine Labore" at its best!

                    What's the purpose of having day off to celebrate when teachers give extra lessons to make up. Understand from DS3 that some subject teachers have already given notice to stay back for make up lessons. :roll:

                      Major General Neo Kian Hong (former Chief of Army) and current Chief of Defence Force (head of all SAF's 3 services of Army Airforce, Navy ) or ไธ‰ๅ†›ๆ€ป้•ฟ was a NCC cadet during his Victoria School days.

                      link: http://www.moe.gov.sg/media/speeches/2010/04/10/10th-ncc-affirmation-ceremony.php

                      unlike other typical SAF (Overseas) Scholars [SAFOS] who became Colonels or Generals relatively quickly but almost non have Special operations/Special forces training or background, General Neo is Singapore's first ever Chief of Defence Force to be Ranger-qualified (earlier on he was Singapore's first ever Chief of Army / Service Chief to be Ranger-qualified). General Neo is also a Guards (Khaki beret) officer
