MOE Innergy Awards
Our teachers continually explore innovative approaches to deliver an engaging CCE curriculum. We are honoured to have had our efforts recognised since 2017.
Our school has been recognised as the Maker Education Lead School for the East Zone since 2020.
The maker movement forms a large part of our school's Applied Learning Programme. This programme helps our students to think divergently, and explore and engage with new ideas. We integrate learning across subjects to create authentic learning opportunities for students.
As an example, our students use scientific knowledge in Science and apply Design principles to create drones. Through these hands-on experiences, the practical applications of knowledge and skills become clearer to our students.
