There are many opportunities in PTET to develop various skills, such as leadership, teamwork, critical thinking, communication and time management, both in classrooms and outside. Below are a few activities that students may get involved in to hone their skills.
Youth Science Forum
The Youth Science Forum (YSF) is a student group led by our Chemistry tutor, Ms. Siti Rohaini Hj Md Saleh, which provides a platform for any PTET students who wish to showcase their interests in Science. YSF organise weekly lunch-hour lectures, which are conducted primarily by students, and also publish online Science newsletters.
Despite the current pandemic situations, our YSF students have even created their Youtube channel where they had uploaded their very own first online (pre-recorded) YSF talks for everyone to learn and enjoy!
