Our Primary 5 Holiday Programme

For the past four years, your child has enjoyed a steady academic journey through primary school. Starting with Primary 5 however, their lessons will begin to emphasise the importance of doing well in exams, preparing students mentally for their PSLE in two years’ time. The change in pace will be noticeable, but with early awareness and steady preparation, your child will still be able to enjoy their next school year even as they slowly gear up for the first major exams in their lives.

Our Primary 5 Holiday Programme will span four days from 10 AM to 5 PM, with students beginning each day with a fun workshop session related to the subject of the day. Lunch will be provided for all students*, after which the second half of the day will proceed with a lesson for the day’s featured subject.

Facilitated by a team of up to five teachers, these lessons will focus on experiential and collaborative learning where students are given the chance to participate in hands-on and teamwork-oriented activities. The topics that your child will be learning in our programme will pique their interest and give them a solid headstart when they return to school after the holidays.

*Please note that any dietary requirements can be specified in the Eventbrite signup form.
