A group of local students departed for a five-day exchange programme with a Singaporean primary school on Sunday.
The 12 students from Amar Pahlawan Primary School will join their Singaporean peers at Yangzheng Primary School for lessons in the morning; and field trips, cultural exchanges and discussion sessions in the afternoon and evenings, said school teacher Hajah Siti Hadizah binti Haji Mahbub, who is accompanying the students.
“The exchange is a valuable opportunity for the students to immerse themselves in a different educational environment,” she said. “This programme gives our students the opportunity to experience learning in a foreign country.”
Two other teachers are also accompanying the students on the trip.
The Student School Twinning Programme is an initiative organised by the Ministry of Education, selecting schools from Brunei to participate in student exchanges with schools abroad. – Fadley Faisal
