Primary 3 Level Experience
Learning Journeys
In order to strengthen students’ understanding and cultivate their appreciation of the different cultural and ethnic groups in Singapore, the P3 students will go on various Field-based Learning Journey like heritage trails. These journeys aim to build an appreciation for Singapore’s unique cultural and ethnic diversity while fostering social harmony and inclusivity.
P3 students will also get to visit the Singapore Science Centre for a lesson on plants that aims to help them understand the unusual plants. They will learn the different types of plants, plant parts and functions.
During their visit to Kok Fah Technology Farm, P3 students will learn about innovative farming methods such as soil farming and hydroponics, exploring how fresh produce reaches supermarkets. They will experience salad tasting to understand the benefits of a healthy diet. At the end of the tour, each student will take home a packet of fresh, locally grown vegetables to share with their family.
Gifted Education Programme (GEP)
The students will also go through the test for Gifted Education Programme (GEP) which identifies gifted students to allow them to move into the GEP stream. The GEP Screening Exercise is an optional test conducted by all Primary Schools to identify intellectually gifted students to realise their full potential in an educational environment that is designed to stimulate their intellectual growth.
Mother Tongue Fortnight
To promote a greater appreciation of the various cultures in Singapore, P3 students will take part in the Mother Tongue Fortnight. The students will gain a deeper appreciation of their own Mother Tongue language through the various cultural activities carried out.
