THE YOUNG ALPHA INVESTIGATORS SERIES

Each month we unveil a new interactive story where children take on the role of investigators faced with a mystery they have to solve. These young Alpha Investigators will pick up new skills and knowledge along the way while they develop their critical thinking skills, sense of situational awareness, and discover their personal values.

The weekly programme structure is designed to be flexible and encourages self-directed learning. Children can choose to attend any number of sessions in a month and develop at their own pace.

​OUTDOOR CLASSROOM
This is where the magic happens. Each month, our creative team writes up a new interactive story where children get to choose their own adventure. Based on a specific theme for the month, children role-play as investigators to solve a mystery. The choices they make will affect the outcome of the story, giving children an opportunity to study the effects of cause and consequences.

Lessons will take place outdoors and will include the following:

  1. Knowledge Transfer
  2. Collaborative Play
  3. Personality Discovery
  4. Values Awareness
  5. Physical Activity
  6. Journal Writing
  7. Critical Thinking​

When learning takes place outside four walls and a desk, children have all their senses engaged at once. This helps them process and retain the experience more efficiently which increases their chances of finding connections in the subjects that they study. 

OUTDOOR CLASSROOM

SGD 150.00
​Per session. Saturday 8.30am - 11.30am

For this current module, we will be conducting our classes at Sungei Buloh Nature Walk.
