At Beaconhouse Elementary Campus PECHS, learning is not limited to textbooks; it comes alive through Projects Pinnacle, a vibrant initiative that brings together imagination, science, and hands-on experiences. In term 2, students from Grades 1 to 5 participated in innovative and interdisciplinary projects that sparked curiosity, promoted collaboration, and encouraged critical thinking. Here’s a closer look at the inspiring work from each grade for the event Projects Pinnacle Term II which was held from May 20 till May 22, 2025.
Our youngest learners of Grade 1 took their first steps into the world of science through creativity. In one exciting project, they explored different types of forces push, pull, and twist by using them to create colorful art. This unique approach helped students understand physical forces through fun, hands-on experiences. In the E-STEAM #2 project, Grade 1 students learned about light as a source of energy. They created sun catchers, harnessing sunlight to make beautiful patterns and colors. This simple yet engaging project helped students connect scientific concepts with real-life applications in a joyful and meaningful way.
As part of their E-STEAM Project, students of Grade 2 designed and built catapults and sun catchers, using their science knowledge and artistic skills. They also engaged in a thoughtful panel discussion on environmental conservation, where they shared practical ways to save water and protect nature. Their ideas reflected a strong sense of responsibility and environmental awareness.
In the E-Super Project, students entered the world of Venture Lab, where imagination took center stage. They created clever traps and inventions to capture the Gingerbread Man, complete with models and vibrant presentations. It was wonderful to see how they applied critical thinking, design, and storytelling in such an innovative way.
Our Grade 3 students stood out for their passion for the planet. In the E-Super Project “Guardians of the Greens,” students made recycled art projects and designed posters to raise awareness about saving the Earth. Their work reflected a strong understanding of environmental issues and a commitment to sustainability.
In their E-STEAM project, “Caring for Animals Big and Small,” students studied food chains, different types of pollution, and the lives of well-known environmentalists. They created educational posters and made meaningful pledges to protect wildlife and the Earth when they grow up. These projects helped develop both scientific knowledge and a sense of global citizenship.
One of the most exciting and imaginative projects was carried out by Grade 4 in their “Aliens 1” project. Students were divided into four groups based on environments—ocean, desert, land, and air. Each group chose a real animal from their environment and reimagined it as an alien creature living on a distant planet. Instead of building models, students created detailed drawings of their alien animals and described their physical and behavioral adaptations—how the creature eats, moves, survives, and protects itself in a new habitat. The combination of science and creativity made this project a standout success.
Our oldest students, in Grade 5, took on the role of eco-writers in their project. They used Canva to create eye-catching digital posters that promoted environmental protection. In addition, they wrote informative and persuasive articles to raise awareness about climate change, pollution, and sustainability. Their work displayed a mature understanding of global issues and the power of communication in making a difference.
Projects Pinnacle Term II was more than a science fair—it was a celebration of inquiry, innovation, and impact. Each grade showcased how students can explore big ideas through creative thinking, teamwork, and a passion for learning. Whether it was imagining life on another planet or finding ways to save the one we live on, our students proved that they are not just future scientists—they are future changemakers.
