About this event

  • 5 hours

A half day event comprising of:

  1. A tour to a heritage area of Singapore - Bugis and Waterloo Street - led by a team of professional tour guides that has won various accolades
  2. A video editing workshop conducted by ex-Mediacorp multi-award winning video production team
  3. A visit by a NGS non-profit/charity beneficiary - SG Assist - to our Guild House

and even includes a lunch with Ningbonese dishes!

We start the programme with a visit by our beneficiary, SG Assist where we will learn from them about the work they do, and how participants can contribute time or effort if they want to.

After a short sharing session, we proceed with a video editing workshop. The workshop instructor will teach and guide participants in using user-friendly video-editing mobile apps to create a short video of their tour and visit experience.

Participants can upload their videos to social media and take part in a group contest (per tour group) and a grand draw (at the end of the year) to win prizes!

After the workshop, we will move on to a tour. The route includes a visit to the Waterloo Street and the Bugis neighbourhood where participants will discover the journey our immigrant forefathers took, and how their values continue to grow and be present in the area.

Participants will learn about the history and heritage of Waterloo Street and how early immigrants arrived and adapted to Singapore in the 1900s.

The completion of the tour marks the end of our programme for the day!
