CLAP @ Bishan-Toa Payoh North in conjunction with Bishan Heights RC’s 10th Anniversary Celebration

CLAP! or Community Life Arts Programme is a cultural event organised by the Central Singapore Community Development Council with the aim to bring performing arts closer to the heartlands in the Central Singapore District. The programme also acts as a platform for budding individuals and arts groups to showcase their talents.

CLAP! @ Bishan-Toa Payoh North was first introduced in April 2008 with performances from local talents, which included students from various schools in the division and the Bishan North Community Club performance groups.

On the evening of 24 October 2009, about 200 Bishan North residents warmly welcomed the Guest-of-Honour, Mr Wong Kan Seng, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Home Affairs, and Member of Parliament for Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC for this event. The residents were serenaded by the medley of songs performed by the talented MAEC Malay Combo Band who hails from Bishan North CC.

To commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Bishan Heights RC, DPM Wong joined the grassroots volunteers and residents who celebrate their birthday in October, in singing a birthday song and the cutting of a birthday cake.

Here are some photos taken during the event.
