Student’s Feedback:
“I feel that the MindGym has developed puzzle-solving skills in Rafflesians.
It was fun and a great way to teach us how to solve problems both in the
academic and in life. It also taught us not to give up easily when facing
challenging problems. In the sec 1 Puzzle Design MindGym brought out
creativity in students when they were asked to make their puzzles, logic when
IQ logic took place and thinking when Puzzle Challenge took place. The
MindGym was good enrichment for us students.”
Sec 1J, Ong Han Yang Raffles Institution
“The West Cluster Inter-School Thinking Sports Day was fun and interesting.
There were many challenging puzzles to solve and I enjoyed doing most of
them especially the one with the 9-coloured cubes – IQ Logic. My team won a
prize in the Mind’s Eye Station and this made us feel extremely happy as we
worked well together.”
