Relation with other schools

Yishun Town Secondary School, Nan Chiau High School and Xinmin Secondary School had been holding combined sports meets annually since 2013 to give student athletes from the participating schools a platform to showcase their physical talent and also for the schools to unite to celebrate and enjoy. Apart from the inter-school competitions among students, parent-teacher races are also featured to engage the parents and school staff. This yearly event was stopped in 2017 due to unknown reasons.
