Our students took part in several weeks of an interesting enrichment activity called Junior Engineers @ Work through which they learnt robotics using Lego pieces.
Movement, Tempo, Rhyme & Zest! It was fun fest @ YMCA during the Choral Beats weeks, as our students learnt to keep to the rhythm & shake!
Around The World! During the September term break, our students learnt all about the different continents, cultures, people and places in the world! We had an in-house workshop where our students made their very own ‘passports’ using different art and crafts to represent each continent! Here they are using paint & cotton to depict Antarctica!
Our current and future students had a fun time getting to know each other during our P1 2017 Orientation on 23rd December 2016! We are glad they have all made new acquaintances!

We were excited to welcome potential students and parents to our open house in July 2016! We set up stations where the children could be occupied while parents enquired, looked around and asked questions. We are looking forward to the next open house!
Aside from gifts and goodies, our children had fun doing the Ice Cream Friendship Circle with their friends and bonding over a cool slice of ice cream sandwich! Yummy!
Thank You Mrs. Yap! Our students spent time working on a “farewell & all the best” poster for Mrs. YapNg Hwee Heng, former Principal of Jurong West Primary School. They were excited to present Mrs. Yap with their creation and were very excited when she dropped by the SCC for a visit. Thank you and all the best, Mrs. Yap!
