The Junior Science Club is an after-school programme aiming to provide young students (ages 7 to 11) opportunities to experience science investigations and practical science-related activities that extend their learning beyond the classroom environment. During the sessions, the students practise science-related process skills and nurture their potential to develop problem-solving, critical thinking, communication and self-appraisal skills and competences.
The Junior Science Club initiative has been extended further to offer the opportunity to children in the Early Years (ages 3 to 6) and their parents/guardians. The aim of the Junior Science Club for Early Years is to provide children and their caregivers the opportunity to spend quality time together doing hands-on science.
