Our students joined young nature enthusiasts from across Singapore to explore urban biodiversity, putting their observation skills to the test at the NSS ESN Biodiversity Race.
On 4 June 2025, our students took part in the NSS ESN 4th Biodiversity Race.
Organised by the Nature Society (Singapore) [NSS], the annual Biodiversity Race is part of NSS’ Every Singaporean A Naturalist (ESN) programme, which aims to equip young citizen scientists with the knowledge and skills to identify and monitor Singapore’s urban biodiversity.
