The statement noted that the outreach introduced over 50 students to interactive science and math activities and the session included basic science lessons on motion and gravity, outdoor games, math challenges, and creative painting projects with science themes.
The organisers disclosed that one year later, the programme’s impact is still evident.
“We are encouraged by the teachers feedback which showed that there has been increased enthusiasm for STEM subjects among students, while parents have become more engaged in their children’s education,” the statement said.
The statement further disclosed that the programme gave students a rare chance to experience science and math beyond the classroom, noting that volunteers worked with them to make abstract concepts relatable through outdoor games and creative activities.
“These hands-on experiences not only taught students’ new ideas but also helped them build confidence and teamwork skills,” it added.

Recognizing the importance of parental support, the NGO said it included a session for parents to highlight their role in fostering a learning environment at home.
It states, “Volunteers provided practical advice, such as encouraging curiosity, asking about school, and praising effort.
