The STEM and Abacus Programme is a core part of our school’s enriched learning experience and is compulsory for all students from Nursery Two through to the Grade classes. Thoughtfully integrated into the weekly timetable, it ensures that every child builds strong foundations in numeracy, problem-solving, and critical thinking.
Programme Overview
Our approach combines hands-on STEM activities with structured abacus training, enabling students to develop speed, accuracy, and confidence in mathematics. Through regular exposure to inquiry-based learning, children grow into logical thinkers and curious learners.
Programme Focus
Children explore STEM-Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics through hands-on activities that promote inquiry, collaboration and real world problem solving.
Abacus sessions train the brain to process numbers quickly and accurately, gradually developing mental maths skills without relying on calculators.
Skills And Benefits
Strengthens concentration, memory, logical reasoning and creativity, helping learners become more independent and resilient in their studies.
Reduces maths anxiety and boosts confidence, leading to better performance across subjects and a more positive attitude towards learning.
Learning Environment
Small-group, interactive lessons led by trained facilitators who provide step-by-step guidance and engaging challenges for different age levels.
Supportive classroom atmosphere where children share ideas, work in teams and celebrate their achievements, building social and communication skills alongside academics.
Why It Stands Out
Prepares children early for future STEM pathways by combining conceptual understanding with speed, accuracy and mental agility.
Offers a holistic extra-curricular option that develops both the left and right brain, balancing logical thinking with imagination and visualisation.
