What an inspiring morning of learning, laughter, and friendship! On 6 November 2026, EDSM was delighted to welcome 50 Primary 5 students and teachers from SON for a memorable Book Week School Exchange Programme.
Working in mixed groups, students from both schools communicated in English, shared their favourite book characters, solved creative challenges, explored stories together, and exchanged words of encouragement through affirmation bookmarks and friendship trees.
Throughout the morning, students demonstrated confidence, creativity, teamwork, and respect while building meaningful connections with new friends. It was wonderful to see them step out of their comfort zones, express their ideas in English, and support one another in a positive and welcoming environment.
A heartfelt thank you to SON and everyone who helped organise and support this wonderful event. Your hard work, support, and dedication made it a great success!
We look forward to many more opportunities to learn, read, and grow together as we continue building friendships through the joy of books and language learning.
