Agnes, Syada, and Gina have gone above and beyond in facilitating Internal Practical Assessment setups, ensuring that students have the resources and guidance they need to excel in their practical work. Their meticulous attention to detail and commitment to safety have created a productive environment where students can thrive.

Engaging STEAM Activities
This year, our lab technicians have introduced a variety of engaging STEAM activities that have sparked an mindset of inquirers and risk-taking among students. From hands-on experiments to innovative projects, they have made science accessible and exciting, encouraging students to explore the wonders of the scientific world.

Individual Depth Studies, Internal Assessments and Research
In addition to their support for practical assessments, Agnes, Syada, and Gina have played a crucial role in guiding our senior science students through their research projects. Their expertise and mentorship have empowered students to delve deeper into their interests, fostering a love for inquiry and discovery.

As we reflect on the impact of STARWeek, let us express our gratitude to Agnes, Syada, and Gina for their dedication and hard work. Their contributions not only enhance our science curriculum but also inspire the next generation of scientists. Thank you for all that you do!
