NP Co-op Brings Cheer to Essential Workers at

“Unsung Heroes Appreciation” Event

On 11 May 2026, the Ngee Ann Polytechnic Consumer Co-operative Society (NP Co-op), together with students from the Community Service Interest Group (CSIG) from the School of Life Sciences & Chemical Technology (LSCT), jointly organised the second run of the “Unsung Heroes Appreciation” event to honour and thank the many essential workers who help keep the Ngee Ann Polytechnic campus running smoothly every day. The event was also strongly supported by NP’s Estate, Eco & Safety Office (EES).

More than 130 essential workers attended the appreciation luncheon, including cleaners, landscape workers, logistics personnel, technicians, security officers, and parking wardens. The gathering aimed to recognise their invaluable contributions and dedication in maintaining a safe, clean, and conducive campus environment for students, staff, and visitors.

The event space was transformed into a lively and heartwarming celebration, featuring a buffet lunch spread, complimentary Luckin Coffee vouchers, an ice cream booth, a butter corn snack booth, and a photo booth where guests could relax, enjoy themselves, and capture joyful memories together. The cheerful atmosphere was filled with laughter, conversations, and moments of appreciation as attendees took a well-deserved break from their daily responsibilities.

Adding warmth and vibrancy to the afternoon, the NP String CCA group presented several musical performances for the attendees. Their performances brought smiles and joy to many of the workers present, contributing to the meaningful and uplifting atmosphere throughout the event. To further express appreciation, NP Co-op also presented every essential worker with a Luckin Coffee voucher, inviting them to “enjoy a free coffee from us” as a small token of gratitude for their hard work and dedication.

Deputy Principal Mah Wee Beng delivered a simple yet heartfelt opening address, expressing appreciation to the workers for their tireless efforts and commitment in keeping the campus clean, safe, and operational every day. The President of NP Co-op and the Principal of Ngee Ann Polytechnic also made a special appearance during the event, taking time to mingle and chat personally with the workers.

While the activities and refreshments brought excitement to the celebration, the heart of the event was the opportunity to recognise the people whose efforts are often unseen, yet deeply felt across the campus community. Their dedication and resilience continue to shape the everyday experience at Ngee Ann Polytechnic.

More than just a celebration, the Unsung Heroes Appreciation event served as a reminder of the important role every individual plays in shaping the Ngee Ann Polytechnic experience. From maintaining the cleanliness of the campus to ensuring the safety and comfort of students and staff, these workers are truly the backbone of the community.

As the event concluded, it left behind more than full hearts and happy memories. It reinforced the spirit of kindness, respect, and appreciation within the NP family.

Through meaningful initiatives such as this, NP Co-op hopes to continue fostering a culture of gratitude, inclusiveness, and care for the unsung heroes who make a difference every day.

On 11 February, members of the Ngee Ann Polytechnic Consumer Co-operative Society Limited gathered at the Blk 16 Sports Hall for our inaugural NP Co-op Pickleball Workshop — and what a fantastic start to the year it was.

The session was part of our effort to strengthen the “WE-first” spirit that defines our co-operative. Beyond the rallies and friendly competition, the real highlight was seeing members connect, laugh, encourage one another, and try something new together.

With guidance from our coach, participants picked up the fundamentals quickly — from how to hold the paddle, to serving, positioning and teamwork. The energy in the hall grew louder with every point won and every near miss cheered.

Each participant also received a Pickleball Starter Kit, making sure everyone could continue their journey in one of the fastest-growing sports around.

What made the afternoon special wasn’t just the game, it was the camaraderie. Long-time members met new friends, colleagues partnered across departments, and the co-operative community came alive in a different way.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make our very first pickleball event such a success. If you missed this run, don’t worry, more community activities are already being planned.

Let’s keep building our NP Co-op spirit, one rally at a time.
