The EL Department successfully organised our One Minute of Fame recess activity in the school library last Friday, drawing a strong turnout of students across all three recess sessions in Term 2.
Our confident young speakers shared passionately on a wide range of topics, including the history of Singapore, Spider-Man, book reviews, computer games, and even the idea of having an ice cream stall in the school canteen! The presenters demonstrated great enthusiasm and confidence, while the audience showed encouraging support throughout the sessions.
Registration for the next One Minute of Fame session will be posted on SLS when school reopens on Monday, 29 June, in Term 3. We warmly invite our Primary One students to join us too β whether through book sharing, show-and-tell with props or realia, or presentations on topics they are passionate about.
We look forward to seeing even more students participate in Term 3. Enjoy the short video compilation and photographs below!
Our school came alive with excitement during the STEM Fair, where students explored the wonders of Math and Science through interactive booths and hands-on challenges!
From solving Rubikβs Cubes and tackling Sudoku challenges to designing exciting marble runs, students applied concepts such as geometry, whole numbers, fractions, forces, energy and decimals in engaging real-world contexts.
These meaningful activities transformed learning beyond the classroom, allowing students to think critically, solve problems creatively, and develop inventive thinking skills β all while having fun with their peers!
The STEM Fair also sparked curiosity and nurtured a love for learning, showing students that Math and Science can be exciting, practical, and part of everyday life.
A big thank you to everyone who contributed to making the fair such an inspiring and enriching experience!
