Bukit View NPCC unit was formed in 1986 when the school first started. Mr. Chai Choon Kow was the officer-in-charge then. Other than participating in various activities within the community and at HQ level, the boys in the unit received Taekwondo training on Saturday afternoon.
Over the years, the unit continues to render our services to the Community Centre, Kindergarten and Primary Schools within the vicinity. We also went on a few overseas Adventure Training Trip to the Berkelah Falls and Taman Negara.
In 1994, our unit was awarded the Silver Award in the Unit Overall Proficiency Award. Our girls' team also came in as 2nd Runner-up in the Campcraft competition in the same year. In the year 1998, the Bukit View NPCC Unit won the Most Improved Unit Award when we took part in the Overall Unit Proficiency Award again.

History of NPCC

In 1959 a pilot scheme was launched whereby a Police Cadet Corps (PCC) Unit was set up on an experimental basis. Bartley Secondary School formed the first unit with 30 cadets and a teacher officer.
On 2 Jun 1961, the Police Cadet Corps Ordinance was enacted. All schools were given approval to set up PCC units. Siglap Secondary School and Serangoon Garden Government High School were the first to form such units. The PCC and the National Cadet Corps (NCC) came under the administration of the Ministry of Education (MOE) with the Director of Education as the Director of Cadet Forces in 1963. In the following year, the PCC recruited girl cadets with two new units formed in Raffles Girls' Secondary School and Sang Nila Utama Secondary School. Formation signs were introduced for unit identity in 1968.
In 1969, with the integration of PCC, Army, Air & Sea, the PCC was renamed National Cadet Corps (Police). In 1970, Cadet Inspectors' unit was formed from students in Pre-U classes. The NCC (Police) was renamed National Police Cadet Corps (NPCC) in 1971. The NPCC band was also formed in the same year. In 1972, the "grey and khaki" uniform was changed to the present blue.
In 1974, the NPCC Council was established by an Act of Parliament. On 1 Apr 1975, the NPCC Council was inaugurated by the Minister for Education.
In 1976, the NPCC Band recruited girl cadets. The NPCC service medals and clasps were introduced for officers in 1979 and a year later, Proficiency Badges were introduced.
