In the weekend before Christmas, a group of Singapore volunteers visited GTIS to conduct a math and science camp for our Grade 7-12 students.

It was a 2.5 days’ worth of fun-packed activities!
Basic Newtonian science concepts were exhibited though fun activities such as balloon-propelled handmade toy cars and rainbow wheels. And maths formulas were reinforced through innovative exercises of orange peels (we get to eat the fruit after that!)
Finding the area of a sphere using an orange.
Most importantly, the students had a meaningful time of bonding with each other and learning the importance of teamwork and post-activity reflection.

The staff and students of GTIS would like to say a big THANK YOU to the volunteers from Sembawang Presbyterian Church for their time and extensive efforts in along the Maths and Science Camp 2019 a success!
Building the proverbial Tower of Babel?
