| What We Do |
We organise various projects that cover important subjects like science, math, and proficiency in English and Bahasa Malaysia (written, spoken, reading and understanding). These projects happen all year round and are designed to open the minds of the children and develop a love for learning and passion for being the best that they can be. |

| English Enrichment Programme (EEP) |
EEP totally immerses Standard 1 students in English for three hours weekly, to develop their spoken
ability. The concept of this programme is all about learning to speak English in a ‘fun' way and the
methodology used is not exam orientated, but fun-filled and activity based.
EEP was launched in August 2005 at SJK (T) Vivekananda PJ and SJKT Appar, KL. In
2006, we managed to get 400 students from 10 schools to
take part in this project. In 2007, we have started with
9 schools, with a total of 350 students and
in 2008 we had 450 students
with 14 schools whereas in 2009 we reached out to 602
students with 20 schools. In 2010 we plan to spread out
to 750 students for both Standard 1 & 2.
