The students woke up early and started off the day with their breakfast at 8 am in the morning. The picture below was taken at breakfast this morning.
After breakfast, the students gathered in the lobby to get ready to head out for the day. Wow, look at them! How cool they look.
The first thing we did when we got to Little India was to go to a supermarket to get some snacks and drinks. The students had a great time shopping at the supermarket. Look at those happy smiles!
We took a stroll along the streets of Little India. The students were able to listen and have a look at the Indian culture in Singapore.
For most students, it was also their first time entering a Hindu Temple. They went in to have a look and see how the Hindus worship in their temple.
The next stop we were at was Kampong Glam. We stopped at the Malay Heritage Museum to take photos. Apparently, it used to be a palace for a sultan.
From Kampong Glam, we headed off for lunch at Marina Square's Seoul Garden. The students enjoyed grilling and boiling their lunch.
After lunch, the students were very excited as they went on the Singapore Flyer to have a Bird's Eye view of Singapore. They were very excited taking pictures from different angles.
From Singapore we went to Marina Barrage to learn about Singapore's latest reservoir. The students also learnt how important water is for Singaporeans.
The students also had great fun taking lots of photos on the little park above the Marina Barrage. You can see the Singapore Flyer in the background and also the Sands Casino which will be opening soon.
Next, we headed to URA City Gallery to have a look at Singapore's government planning of the country. It also showed how the government of Singapore plans for new buildings and yet preserves old buildings with heritage value.
We took a walk to Chinatown after that. The tour guide explained some of the meanings and history of the street names.
Finally it was the time that everyone was waiting for. We had dinner at Maxwell Road Food Centre. The students had a good time ordering and buying their own food. It was quite an experience.
Last night, I forgot to upload pictures of the hotel rooms. Some of the students decided that they wanted to join the beds together as they like sleeping and being close to their friends. I spoke to the students and they told me that they like the hotel room because it's big and spacious.
That's all for today. Come back tomorrow night for another update. Hope you had fun reading the activities of today.
