MIRI: Some 80 SK Bario pupils attended the Petronas Science Educamp programme at the school from Oct 21-24.
Pupils from Primary 4 to 6 took part in experiential learning activities with emphasis on Science, Mathematics and English.
“We would like to thank Petronas for bringing a new fun learning experience to the pupils and teachers in Bario,” SK Bario headmistress Dora Tigan said during the closing ceremony.
Spearheaded by Petronas Sarawak Regional Office, Miri in collaboration with wholly-owned subsidiary Petrosains, the programme targets pupils in remote areas.
Corporate affairs senior executive Suffian Sabeli said the main objectives of the programme included exposing pupils to varying concepts of science and technology, as well as igniting an interest in science and technology careers.
It is also designed to assist teachers to think out of the box by seeking alternative teaching resources. In December, another programme will be held at SK Ba Kelalan, Lawas.
Similar programmes were carried out at SK Long Bedian and SK Long Bemang in Miri Division; SK Long Tuma, SK Long Luping and SK Long Napir, Limbang Division; SK Batu 36 in Sibu Division; and SK Dua Sungai, Mukah Division.
