🎉 Exciting Moments with ACSP Students! 🚀

In our recent programme at Anglo-Chinese School (Primary), the P5 and P6 students embarked on an inspiring STEM Interdisciplinary Project Work focusing on Design Thinking and tackling sustainability-related challenges in energy and sustainable living. 🌱⚡

Aligned with the Singapore Green Plan 2030, the programme introduced students to the fundamentals of solar power circuits, programming a solar bus, and prototype creation. Working in teams, they applied STEM skills and Design Thinking principles (Empathise, Define, Ideate) to develop innovative solar-powered prototypes.

This programme was made even more meaningful with the support of Meiji Singapore, who generously donated milk cartons for our upcycling efforts! ♻️ These cartons were creatively reused by the students as part of their solar bus projects, reinforcing the importance of sustainability and environmental stewardship. 🌞✨

A big shoutout to the amazing students of ACSP for their enthusiasm and hard work, and a heartfelt thank you to Meiji Singapore for partnering with us on this impactful journey. 💡💚 Together, we’re nurturing changemakers for a sustainable future!

GaraSTEM International Robotics Competition 2023, held at Nanyang Technological University on 2 July 2023, saw participants of ages 7 to 18 from various countries such as Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia and Cambodia coming together to compete in the robotics competition with GaraSTEM’s very own G-Robot Creator. Participants assembled their robots, following which they controlled and programmed them to pit against other robots in completing the tasks.

The competition concluded with 1 champion each from the primary and junior high category, 1 winning team as “The Best Coding Team”, 6 gold medals, 6 silver medals and 5 bronze medals.

This was an exciting opportunity for participants from different countries to transcend cultural boundaries, learn from each other and work together to succeed.
