Space Camp @ FasTracKids

13 June - 17 June 2011

Decided to enrol Eugene for a 1 week 'Space Camp' during the school holidays.

Just nice that this camp was about space and planets as Eugene is fascinated by the night sky with stars and the moon.

The kids get to draw on the interactive board.

 

Lessons on space and colouring the astronauts.

Eugene, on his own accord, got out of his chair and waited for his turn in donning the astronaut suit.

Astronaut Eugene!

Playing with his new classmates after the lesson.

In one lesson, the teacher said to imagine that there are twinkling stars in the sky and switched off the classroom's lights, Eugene while looking up to the ceiling, commented : wah, so nice!

The assistant teacher was very tickled by it that he can really imagined it.

The last lesson had a baking session. 

This is the 1st time that Eugene is 'baking'.

Tada! well, don't know which one Eugene did as all the cookies were baked together and given out.

The projects that the kids did besides learning about the planets.

Overall, Eugene had a good time. 

I didn't want to enrol him for any enrichment classes. No need to stress the kid so early - I'm sure he'll be stressed when he goes to mainstream school which I hope by then the government would have a more interactive syllabus.

So this class was purely fun for Eugene.
