English Unboxed Lab
This extra-curricular lab is specially designed as a meeting point for elementary school children who wish to ‘unplug’, build on their strengths and develop (or discover) their talents and creativity through hands-on, enjoyable, screen-free learning experiences. It aims to help students immerse in an English-speaking environment, where they practice their language skills in a meaningful and alternative way.
The focus is on learning in a natural way, through play, arts & crafts, sports, and literacy activities with targeted use of technology (if any!). Each thematic session offers the opportunity for students to develop their creativity, confidence, teamwork, and social skills while enjoying a positive and engaging learning environment.
