Part Time Climbing Instructor

The Singapore Scout Association (SSA)

The Singapore Scout Association is a non-discriminatory youth movement established in 1910 dedicated to the development and enablement of young people in Singapore to become responsible and active citizens. Through the Mission of educating young people on a value system based on the Scout Promise and Scout Law, Scouts help to build a better world where people are self-fulfilled as individuals and play a constructive role in society.

By always doing their best in whatever they do, Scouts use the outdoors as the platform for learning and development.
