We carry out interactive sessions - sports and game session - as well as providing academic help for the students who are enrolled in the mentoring scheme by their schools.

Mentors
We, as mentors, do not solely give free tuition, neither do we solely counsel the students. The difference between tutoring and mentoring is that while tutoring emphasizes greatly on helping the student in getting better academic results, mentoring emphasizes character development above all else. Our job as mentors is to grow and progress along with our mentees, be their big brother or sister, someone other than their family or teachers.
MENTEES SCHOOL
Now, in SP BP Mentoring Club, we have 1 primary school for our mentoring sessions.
Zhangde Primary School
On 30th Dec 2004, Zhangde Primary School moved to its new location at 51 Jalan Membina. Zhangde Primary School was previously at Jalan Bukit Merah.

Attached is the application form, please kindly complete the form and revert to spbpmentoring@gmail.com by 8 April 2008, Tuesday.
Please kindly read through the entire application form (at the bottom of this entry) before submission due to the addition of new mentoring institutions (descriptions enclosed). May it provide you a clearer picture of our new ventures beginning from Year 2008/2009.
Late entries are equivalent to no submission. In which, the posting of schools will be processed according to whichever mentoring institution who needs you more.

We seek your understanding for the above.
Posting results will be released by 12 April 2008, Saturday. Please kindly check your email and inform us if you did not receive any posting results by then.
This is the first time SP BP Mentoring has organised such an event that involves science, maths, arts & sports! Mentees outing usually only involves visiting historical places, doing community work & going different places. BUT! This time, we're bringing our mentees into our school & yet still guarantee they'll have fun!
The day kicked off witht the setting up of booths, signs & work allocation. Shortly, the mentees arrive from the various school & were brief on their mission of the day!
All mentees were required to go through each department (Science, Maths, Arts & Sports) to learn something new for the day! & to be the Knight of the Day and save Rapunzel from the evil witch!
