Primary 5
Discover the enriching experiences that await Primary 5 students, from the NE Show and P5 Camp to museum visits and learning tchoukball.
Primary 5 Level Experience
Mother Tongue Fortnight
To promote a greater appreciation of the various cultures in Singapore, P5 students will take part in the Mother Tongue Fortnight. The students will gain a deeper appreciation of their own Mother Tongue through the various cultural activities carried out during the two days.
National Education (NE) Show
A familiar highlight for a P5 student is the National Education (NE) Show which is essentially a preview of the National Day Parade. They will get to enjoy aerobatic displays by F-16 fighter jets, landings by the Red Lions parachutists, and a security operations demonstration by the Singapore Armed Forces and Home Team called the Total Defence Display.
Social Studies Museum-Based Learning
As part of the Social Studies syllabus, Primary 5 students will embark on a journey to the Indian Heritage Centre to trace the history of the Indian and South Asian communities in the Southeast Asian region.
P5 Camp
With the theme “Beyond Self, Beyond Boundaries”, the P5 Camp which will be held in September is something all P5 students look forward to. The camp provides opportunities for students to explore new places, learn something new and spend more time in nature. They will also learn to be resilient and responsible as they look after themselves and their team-mates.
Sports Education Programme
To provide each Teck Whyean the opportunity to pick up the new sport as a team, the P5 students are introduced to tchoukball. Though it is a highly intensive game comprising of strategic passing, coordinated runs and powerful shots, it is a unique non-contact sport that encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie, discipline and technique.
