All Singapore
Secondary Mathematics Competition for Normal Course Students.
To stimulate greater interest and enrich
students’ knowledge in Mathematics, as well as to provide an opportunity for
Normal Course students to showcase their talent in mathematical knowledge and
skills through solving competition questions, four teams of our Normal Stream
students took part in the competition.
One of our
participants, Angelica Ho from 4N1, has emerged 10th position
in the Upper Secondary NA Category.

Escape Room
Students learn Mathematics by solving a range of Mathematics related
puzzles hidden in a room in order to find the code which will unlock the door.

Mathematical Modelling.
Students use mathematics to
solve real world problem, e.g generate and develop their own
math ideas to work out which is the best snack to buy.

Mathematics Trail
Our Secondary 1 students
cultivated their Joy of Learning by embarking on a Mathematics Trail @
Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park.
