Programmes/ Events

Overview of Programmes and Events

Name of Programme/ Event	Date / Month	Objective of Programme / Event
Sec 1, 2 and 3 Problem Solving Project	April - July	Secondary One, Two and Three G1 students will apply what they learnt in the classroom to solve real world problems in the school and the community.
Sec 1 Code for fun	March - May	Secondary 1 G3 students will be exposed to basic coding as well as computational thinking.
Sec 2 AI for Fun	July – September	Secondary Two G3 students will participate in the AI for Fun Programme. The objectives of the AI for Fun programme is to: Understand Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a technology that enables computers to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence. Use Generative AI (GAI) to develop solutions related to sustainable living. Enhance the design thinking process using GAI tools to support ideation, research, and code generation to build a prototype that solves real-world problems.
Sec 1 Foundational Mathematics Programme	February - May	Secondary One students from G2 and G3 who previously studied Foundation Mathematics in primary school will participate in the Foundational Mathematics Programme, conducted either during or outside regular curriculum hours, to help bridge learning gaps in secondary school Mathematics.
