Playful Learning
During building works at the school, builders found a box in the roof space above the portico of the library, behind the clock. These artefacts, along with the other artefacts uncovered during archaeological excavations, have been used as a tool to engage students in the concept of archaeology and history of their school.
Through a series of multimedia pieces and a showcase display, 20 key artefacts and stories have been carefully selected to connect with relevant themes, and have direct linkage to the ‘place’ where the OSPS school stands.
