e-Learning Enrichment Programme (P1-6)

All pupils are involved in the e-Learning Enrichment Programme as we aim to engage pupils in experiential and self-paced learning via a Learning Management System (LMS). With the LMS, the school will also be able to continue to support learning in the event of school closure and to leverage on the platform to impart ICT skills.


Modular 3-Ware Enrichment Programme (P1-6)

This modular enrichment programme helps to raise awareness among pupils in the following areas:
1) Hardware
2) Software
3) Heart-ware (Cyberwellness)

The programme also helps to ensure that all pupils meet the Baseline ICT Standards rolled out in 2007. Pupils are assessed on their competency in the different ICT Skills Areas.


IT Elective Programme: Basic and Advanced Robotics (P3-6)


LEGO Mindstorms will be used during the basic training to allow pupils to design and program real robots that do what they want them to. With the Mindstorms NXT, the core set of the LEGO, they can create everything from a light-sensitive intruder alarm to a robotic rover that can follow a trail, move around obstacles, and even duck into dark corners.
The advanced course focuses on enhancing the programming for the sensors by having missions that requires two inputs simultaneously. Pupils will also be taught more advanced and complex construction techniques. At the end of the course, there will be a small competition for the pupils to pit their skills against each other.
