CELEBRATING THE JOURNEY
‘Celebrating The Journey’ indeed! This heritage walk holds significant meaning this year for it commemorates Chinese Kindergarten’s centennial. The entire route is less than 5KM and is located in the vicinity of two Singapore’s historic districts – Tiong Bahru and Tanjong Pagar, which witnessed the inception of Chinese Kindergarten to its present.

The walk requires our participants to have an inquisitive mind like Sherlock Holmes and in a fun way of course; and work together as a team to trace back the early development of Singapore in Tiong Bahru and Tanjong Pagar. Akin to the popular TV reality show, ‘Amazing Race’, they will have to look for the checkpoints and take nice wefies as they explore. Clues will be given in the form of scan codes at the starting-point and mid-points. The route will comprise of two parts – a shorter one for families with very young children and a slightly longer one for families with older children who feel they still have the ‘grit & determination’ to carry on to the end.

This is not a time-based challenge and there are no prizes awarded to the fastest teams. Participants are advised to enjoy the time of great family bonding as they work together to solve the puzzles at a leisurely pace. At the end of the walk, our participants would have gained valuable insights into some old buildings and places that played a vital part in the early development of Singapore and Chinese Kindergarten. A reminder – if non-family members plan on walking together, it is important to keep to a maximum of 8 persons in a group and observe safe distancing. Your safety is our priority.
