<p><strong> Can Learning be fun?</strong> We all have that notion that science is tough and boring.<img src="../images/class1.jpg" width="180" height="122" align="left"> But can it ever be interesting? Infact we did nt think so till we reached the Science Centre. This excursion not only erased our false notion regarding Science and also reinstated the fact that Science can be interesting if it is made to understood in a proper way. This excursion showed that how can one enjoy learning. Six teachers ( Padma- Lily, Sreyashi-Neelima, Rashmi- Sonali) and a bunch of 75 enthusiastic students of class I ( A, B, C ) reached the Science Centre at 10:30AM on 26th July 06. In a queue, classwise they entered the Science Centre. They were thrilled to see the various interactive experiments on photosynthesis, human body, lightening conductors, optical illusion etc. After that they enjoyed and shared their lunch at the eco garden. The excursion was not just about enhancing knowledge but to show the students that how learning can be interesting. This is the reason why each and every student enjoyed the trip. If visiting Science Centre was informative then the rest was fun. As every good comes to an end, likewise our journey was at its end when we rode back to our vehicle. In the bus the children sang songs in high spirits and enjoyed their juice and biscuits and Hip Hip Hurray we were back at D.P.S International, School. </p> <p><strong> <img src="../images/pasiris06.jpg" width="180" height="122" align="right"> Picnic to Pasir-Ris Park</strong> On 26th May the Ladybirds and the Butterflies went for a picnic to Pasir-Ris Park.The children were in high spirits and the mood was set for an enjoyable day. Picnics like these help children to see familiar things in new ways and also get opportunity to develop friendship and trust. </p> <strong>Picnic to Science Center</strong> The dawn of Thursday the morning of 11th May and <img src="../images/sciencecenter.jpg" width="180" height="122" align="left">all the children of K2 were geared up for a rollicking and enriching experience at the Science center, Singapore.The bus ride from the school to Science center via the picturesque Jurong was fun filled with the students and teachers all joining in with their ever increasing array of songs. As the children are learning about the five senses, our objective of taking them to the Singapore Science Center was </p> <p>· To stimulate cognitive thinking in children in their early years. </p> <p>· To encourage effective learning through discovery, inquiry and active interaction.</p> <p> · To initiate children to explore further on their own. </p> <p>The gates of the Science Center opened to the young minds and took them to a world of large models, interactive exhibits and audio visual presentations of the Human Body. It starts with the human brain and introduces the unique function of the five senses. The feel of a gush of air box, smell boxes, speaking tubes were some of the exhibits that combined to make this area a multi-sensory experience. All this knowledge of the new world made our students very hungry. Now was the time to gorge on the sump tuous and yummy food their mother s had packed for them. After sharing their picnic with their friends it was time to go to school again </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Picnic to Sentosa</strong> It is once again time for <strong><img src="../images/act_sant.jpg" width="180" height="122" align="right"></strong> field trips and educational tours and our students will visit an animal farm, the Sentosa Underwater world, the Post Office and the Science Centre to strengthen their understanding of the concepts taught in the classes. .</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right">&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="content">&nbsp;</td> </tr> </table> <!-- InstanceEndEditable --></td> <td width="202" align="left" valign="top" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><img src="../images/spacer.gif" width="202" height="1"> <table width="100%" height="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="19" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">&nbsp;</td> <td width="1" background="../images/dot_vert2.gif"><img src="../images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="10"></td> <td width="163" align="right" valign="top"> <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="EditRegion4" --> <table width="150" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td><!-- #BeginLibraryItem "/Library/gallery.lbi" --><table width="150" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#8A8AC6"> <tr> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><table width="150" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td height="18" bgcolor="#8A8AC6" class="panelHead">Photo Gallery </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="58%" align="center"><a href="../DPS%20Gallery/index.html" target="_blank"><img src="../images/thumb_gallery.gif" vspace="2" border="0"></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="58%">See various events, Picnics photos ..<br> <br> <span class="linktxt"><a href="../DPS%20Gallery/index.html" target="_blank">more &raquo;</a></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> </table><!-- #EndLibraryItem --></td> </tr> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> </tr> </table> <!-- InstanceEndEditable --> <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="EditRegion6" --> <table width="150" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td><!-- #BeginLibraryItem "/Library/location.lbi" --><table width="150" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#669966"> <tr> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><table width="150" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td height="18" bgcolor="#669966" class="panelHead">Location</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="58%" align="center"><a href="shl_Location.htm"><img src="../images/thumb_location.jpg" vspace="2" border="0"></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="58%">Approach to the school is from both ... <br> <br> <span class="linktxt"><a href="shl_Location.htm">more &raquo;</a></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> </table><!-- #EndLibraryItem --></td> </tr> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> </tr> </table> <!-- InstanceEndEditable --></td> <td width="22" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="53" background="../images/border.gif"><table width="952" height="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="265" align="left"><img src="../images/global_bottom.jpg" width="265" height="53" border="0" usemap="#Map" href="sitemap.htm"></td> <td valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td height="3" background="../images/gradient_line.jpg"><img src="../images/spacer.gif" width="10" height="3"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="25" class="linktxt"><A href="abt_DpsSociety.htm">About us</A> : <A href="acm_Icse.htm">Academics</A> : <a href="shl_WhyDPS.htm">The School</a> : <a href="adm_Overview.htm">Admission</a> : <a href="act_CCAECA.htm">Activities</a> : <a href="srp_Overview.htm">Scholarship</a> : <a href="evn_Workshops.htm">Events</A> : <A href="nws_SchoolNews.htm">News</A> : <A href="dps_Alumni.htm">Alumni</a> : <a href="dps_Contact.htm">Contact us</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="copyright">&copy; 2004-2011 DPS International School Pte.
