The St. Andrew's 'STAR' Scout Group in retrospect of her past illustrious years of worthy existence may be justified to feel genuinely proud of herself. In July 1924, the known as the 10th Troop of Singapore, she originated and pioneered the way for uniformed movements in the history of St. Andrew's School.

Her existence were marked by vicissitudes but she has surmounted all obstacles, and has today, established herself as one of the foremost scout groups in our country, credited with many laudable achievements. A reputation attained not through mere reveries but through the sheer dint of hard work on the part of past and present members of the Group.

As the Group continues to live on in an ever changing society, as the appearance of her members tranforms over time due to the changes in uniform, the retentive ideals and spirit of Scouting, founded by Lord Baden Powell, will always remain steadfast in the Group.

We have a proud tradition, a high standard to maintain and even higher goals to pursue. We cannot anticipate the future, thus we cannot prepare for it. We can only arm ourselves with a resilient mind and a courageous attitude to confront it. Yes, we can only 'Be Prepared'.
