The Republic Polytechnic (RP) is the youngest of Singapore’s 5 Polytechnics and it is the most progressive of all. There are 7 Schools (Applied Science, Engineering, Hospitality, Infocomm, Management and Communication, Sports, Health and Leisure and Technology for the Arts) which will provide industry-based education, training and exposure to students as they prepare for the demands and challenges of working life. As part of our holistic education efforts, CREATE is home to many Interest Groups (IGs) that aims to provide balance throughout a student’s education journey with RP.

The RP Wind Symphony is the Premier Band in the North of Singapore and we will be having our annual Band Tune-in on Saturday, 18 January 2020 from 10:00am to 5:00pm to provide an opportunity for future students of RP and our friends to enjoy a great day of fun and music and also to get to know the band and its members!
