Singapore’s First 3D-Printed Tactile Braille Storybook

NAMIC Singapore’s CSR initiative, in partnership with iC2 PrepHouse and Tusitala, brings Singapore’s first 3D-printed tactile Braille storybook to life, blending technology and empathy to support inclusive learning for children and youths with visual impairments.

CNA Feature – In Plain Sight

In March this year, Channel News Asia featured 3 of our iC2 PrepHouse students, Mihran, Eliot and Tze Csi, on their programme In Plain Sight. This 3-part series sheds light on how our students learn, respond and navigate through the joys and challenges of being in a mainstream school. Additionally, it also touches on the various support systems that exist to support children with Visual Impairment.

The team at iC2 PrepHouse is very proud of how far our students like Mihran, Eliot and Tze Csi have progressed in their journey of leading independent lives in a sighted community and we can’t wait to see them do even better. If you are keen, please feel free to watch the 3-part series via the link below.
