Programme for Active Learning (PAL)
What is PAL?
PAL lessons offer P1 and P2 students fun, hands-on experiential learning through a broad range of activities in Sports & Games, Outdoor Education, and Visual & Performing Arts. These lessons provide students with opportunities to discover new interests, develop character, and cultivate social-emotional competencies.
