SICS CAMP 2026
SICS Luminos is a 2-day Freshman Orientation Programme inspired by the magic of new beginnings, bringing freshmen together for an unforgettable journey of friendship, discovery and growth. Set within the enchanting world of SICS (Special Interest & Community Service Sodality), freshmen will venture through exciting activities and challenges while getting to know the sodality’s 21 special interest and community service clubs. Each club represents a unique blend of passions, talents and causes, giving every freshman the opportunity to uncover new interests, forge meaningful connections and find a community they can call home. Guided by the spirit of Luminos -- to shine brightly and light the way for others, the camp marks the first chapter of every freshman’s SICS journey.
SICS Luminos transports freshmen into the mystical world of the wizard school, where four powerful houses compete in an annual tournament to prove their strength, unity and spirit. What begins as a grand opening ceremony takes an unexpected turn when the academy’s headmasters mysteriously vanish and are discovered trapped within a magical globe. A masked figure reveals that he has stolen their magical essence, throwing the academy into chaos.
To save the headmasters and restore balance to the academy, freshmen must embark on a journey to recover the 5 gems, each representing the mastery of each cluster in order to break the curse.
