                  Teacher's Comment: Timmy Hung, Teacher, Law Ting Pong Secondary School

“The trip was able to test the students on different skills in a challenging way. The tasks design for Little India brought the students together and made it enjoyable. The various activities undertaken also enlightened the students on how to make a better future for our own country.” 

Sustainable Development


Why Singapore?


British’s free trade policy in Singapore since 1819 created a more prosperous port which drew in migrants from neighbouring areas and resulted in the decline of Malacca, its neighbour controlled by the Dutch. In this trip, students will learn about how different cultures co-existed, assimilated or acculturated with each other in the past.  Moreover, students will learn about the efforts of sustainable development and building national identity in Singapore.
