The lighthouse, an icon of Waterway Primary School, represents a student from Waterway Primary School who has ideas. We want to equip our students with the required mindset, thinking tools, skills, and provide a conducive culture and environment for them to turn their ideas into reality through making.
We hope for our students to be life-long learners who are critical, adaptive and inventive thinkers, and are able to identify, collaborate and solve any problems/challenges they might face in their future.
