Committee of Supply 2026 debate, Day 6: Darryl David on Outward Bound School for all
From its beginnings on Pulau Ubin, Outward Bound Singapore (OBS) has grown into a key national institution, delivering character and leadership programmes for youth. Given OBS’ transformative impact, can the government extend its experiential learning model to Singaporeans who did not have the opportunity in their youth, by building on existing partnerships? MP Darryl David raised this question in parliament on Thursday (Mar 5). He noted that such partnerships - with grassroots networks, for example - could help bridge generational divides, encouraging lifelong learning and creating shared experiences that deepen community bonds.
