Innovation Day

P5 INNOVATION DAY 2023

Bendemeer Primary School embarked on our Applied Learning Programme (ALP) – Environment Education & Sustainable Living@BPS (E2SL@BPS) to ignite the interest of our students and provide them with environmental conservation knowledge and platforms for the transfer and application of learning through real life problems and hands-on experiences.

Aligned to our nation’s emphasis on sustainable living and green practices, our Primary 5 students were tasked to design a sustainable home as part of the ALP project. In term 1, they underwent a design-thinking workshop to equip them with problem-solving skills which they applied to the building of their sustainable home design. To further enhance our students’ learning, we have also integrated Micro:bit programming which students used in at least one feature of their sustainable home. It has been an enriching learning journey for our students as they consider the impact Man has on his environment and how one can do their part to save the Earth and advocate for sustainable living practices.

On 18 May, parents were invited to view the Innovation Day presentations from their child’s class. The best projects from every P5 class carried out their presentation in the school hall. The P3 and P4 students were also invited to view their seniors’ projects to learn more about sustainable features in a smart home.
