RICE 2 values Rice is an Asian staple food. It is therefore symbolic for us to use RICE 2 as the acronym for our school values. We want to digest the values everyday so that we can internalize these values through our ‘Learning by Doing, Doing until we Become’ Become philosophy. RICE 2, which stands for ü Respect, ü Integrity, ü Care, ü Empowerment, ü Responsibility, ü Innovation, ü Community and ü Excellence, are values that apply to both our staff and students. 8
