The Stem Club

4th July 2025

In a tech-driven world, STEM skills are vital. STEM Club offers practical experience, boosts confidence and shows that science is not just learned, it is lived. We thank all parents for their support and encourage more students to join us in shaping tomorrow’s innovators.

This term in the STEM Club, students explored engineering by building bridges using spaghetti, paper, pencils, and rubber bands. They applied real-world concepts like tension, load and stability through hands-on teamwork.

A highlight was constructing the Da Vinci bridge, a self-supporting design needing no glue or nails, using just pencils and rubber bands. Originally meant for wartime use due to its easy setup and takedown, similar concepts are used today in temporary structures and emergency relief. Activities helped students build problem-solving, critical thinking, and resilience.
