Within a safe, comfortable and friendly community, our residents are exposed to new experiences, new opportunities and new challenges. They live in close proximity with peers from different background and culture, and thus will learn embrace difference, and see things from a fuller perspective. Through the provision of a wide varieties of residential education programmes, residents are encouraged to engage in activities they are unfamiliar with, involve in planning and implementation, and take on leadership roles. The residential halls offer an ideal environment for students to develop critical transferable skills, critical for personal growth and career development.

Residential students are at the core of our work and we actively cultivate a collaborative and caring environment where residents lead and serve. We have confidence that all residents will value and grow from their residential experience. We envision each of you to flourish in this diverse residential experience. We desire to celebrate your unique backgrounds, heritage, and cultures so that others can learn and continue to make positive changes in themselves and their contexts.
