BERNINA Education in collaboration with NTUC Health present a transformative Values-in-Action (VIA) programme for Primary, Secondary & Tertiary schools, merging heritage with innovation.

This intergenerational initiative pairs students with seniors to exchange skills: elders pass down the timeless craft of traditional sewing and embroidery, while students introduce seniors to cutting-edge BERNINA software that digitises hand-drawn sketches into machine-ready designs.

Through exposure to technology and hands-on skills, the programme fosters mutual respect, preserves cultural traditions, and bridges the digital divide through meaningful collaboration.
