Additional Activities Outside the Classroom:

At Shelton we are dedicated to the belief that an engaged student is a productive one. English is a living language and we are always looking for new and exciting ways to teach it. Students are taken on weekly trips to a wide variety of locations which not only provide concrete groundings for target vocabulary, but also an exposure and enhanced appreciation of different cultures and experiences. Students have been taken to national and cultural landmarks like the Marina Bay, National Public Library, Little India, Kampong Glam Museum, Arab Street, and Sentosa. However, we have also been to locations like IKEA, Mind Café, and to the cinema. We encourage our students to see English as a living language, one that not only opens new doors for their career, but enriches their daily lives. We hope to see you soon in Singapore!
