25 March 2024 marked the start of two teachers’ exhilarating journey within FabLab. 🚀 During these two action-packed weeks, both Mr Ronald Wong from Boon Lay Secondary School and Mr Wong Kwok Choon from Rulang Primary School dove headfirst into the cutting-edge realms of digital fabrication, exploring machinery such as laser cutters, CNC machines and 3D Printers. 🛠️💡 Armed with knowledge and skills such as SCAMPER method and shape borrowing, both teachers collectively designed, prototyped, and made a variety of items, such as decorative cardboard lantern, acrylic light display, accessories holder and handphone holder.

But that’s not all! Both teachers returned to their school, equipped with a treasure trove of fresh ideas and knowledge, ready to educate and ignite their students’ passion for machinery and design. 🔥

Get ready to kickstart into an unforgettable adventure in the world of digital fabrication and apply now to be a part of this electrifying Teacher Work Attachment Plus programme to supercharge your curriculum, inspire your students and level up your own skills! 🌟
