Naval Base Secondary School has a proud heritage spanning 68 years. From our humble beginnings in 1957 as a school for Naval Base employees, we have grown into a vibrant learning community.
Our school motto, Enitamur In Altiora—"Be Our Best"—guides everything we do. We firmly believe that every child is both a learner and a leader. Our goal is not only to help students achieve success but also to inspire them to use their abilities to uplift others. Leadership is not confined to titles; it manifests in everyday actions—within families, workplaces, and communities. This is why we place a strong emphasis on character and leadership development, encouraging every student to embrace the opportunities provided for them.
In an ever-changing world filled with challenges and uncertainties, our aim is not just to help our students navigate difficulties but to empower them to thrive. Through our school values—Respect, REsilience, Care, Integrity, Passion, and Excellence (RECIPE for success)—we nurture students of character who embrace a growth mindset, contribute meaningfully to society, and create positive change in their communities and beyond.
Likewise, the professional development of our teachers is vitally important. As a school leader with a background in staff development, I deeply believe that educators should never "run on empty." That is why we invest in their growth, ensuring they continually refine their craft and remain exemplary learners for their students.
As we step into 2025, new possibilities and experiences await. I am committed to journeying alongside every member of the Naval Base family, guiding our students to realize their full potential. Together, through resilient learning and steadfast solidarity, we will become the best versions of ourselves and live out our school motto—Enitamur In Altiora.
