Dino Island’s renowned educational event, “School-O-Saurus,” made a thrilling stop at the Bina Bangsa School PIK-Primary campus on February 16, 2024. The Kartini Hall echoed with excitement as the Primary 1 and 2 students eagerly participated in a 90-minute adventure filled with learning, fun, and of course, dinosaurs!
The event kicked off at 11:00 am with an engaging introduction to the world of dinosaurs, focussing on the adorable baby Velociraptor, baby Patagotitan and baby Triceratops. The students were enthralled as they learnt about these fascinating creatures.
Following the dino-discovery session, an interactive lecture on the healthy food and habits of dinosaurs captivated the young audience. Dino Island’s expert educators combined education with entertainment, delivering valuable lessons in a way that resonated with the children.
The highlight of the event was the opportunity for students to meet and greet both the baby dinosaurs and the adult T. Rex. The excitement in the room was obvious as the children interacted with these lifelike creatures, fostering a sense of wonder and curiosity.
The learning experience continued with a hands-on session where students got creative in making Bernoulli’s rocket straws and some students were even called on stage to demonstrate how the rockets are launched. This interactive activity not only demonstrated scientific principles but also allowed the young minds to unleash their imagination.
As the clock approached 12:30 pm, the event concluded with a bang – a lively and memorable photo session. The students, teachers and the dino-cast captured moments of joy and excitement, creating lasting memories of a day filled with education and adventure.
Dino Island’s commitment to making learning fun continues to inspire children to explore the marvels of the world around them. As the curtains closed on “School-O-Saurus,” the aura of excitement lingered, leaving behind an indelible mark on the hearts of the young palaeontologists of Bina Bangsa.
