For our holistic programme for the December holidays, Punggol tutor brought students to go indoor rock climbing for the Upper Primary Science students. They learnt Forces and Biology during their Science tuition and put all they have learnt during this outing. They learnt friction, propulsion, gravity and free fall, how their body requires oxygen, heart beat and fatigue of muscles during their 6 hour session. Of course, they also learnt how to follow important instructions, manage safety and equipment, team work and also a never give up attitude that is so important in their studies.
Socialising and making great friends are important for children to have a wide circle of friends.
the best thing about today… is to know there’s a good friend for me that will stop me from falling. eduKate Students develops deeper ties and acquire important social skills. Team building skills and gaining a deep trust of each other to keep safe is essential for children.
that rope is in my face but I think you know I am pretty happy now.
I will never give up… Science, Mathematics, Strategies and Critical Thinking. Put all these items together and students starts to understand what they learn in eduKate, is actually useful when they are being challenged at Climb Central
I was afraid at first, but mom, look how far I have gone…
wait for me!
I am going up again!
Another student attempts
I reached the top! eduKate Primary 6 students. We are proud of them when they achieve monumental feats. Positive reinforcement helps to empower our students.
that’s a rather long way up, but its the journey of learning that makes it all worth while-perseverance and mental strength being tested
