Bishan Indoor Stadium departed from its usual activity this morning as residents of Bishan East, Bishan-Toa Payoh North and Thomson Constituency gathered to witness the unveiling of a plaque by DPM Wong Kan Seng and Mayor Zainudin to mark the launch of Bishan Indoor Stadium as the Singapore Youth Olympics Games venue for Gymnastic events.
Leaving the celebrations in the good hands of the SYOG mascots Lyo and Merly, DPM Wong went on to attend residents’ block parties at Bishan East Zones 2, 4 and 6 where he presented a total of 31 CDC-ITE scholarships and Edusave bursaries to students who had attained sterling academic results.
DPM Wong and residents were treated to activities that ranged from mystical magic shows, cooking demonstrations and a mini flea market at the block parties, which were hosted by RC chairmen, Mr Chia Pen Chuen (Zone 2), Mr Alfred Tan (Zone 4) and Ms Lee Ker Hwa (Zone 6).
“In addition to discovering the intricacies of how to make good Kimchi, it was a good opportunity to catch up with residents and their families whilst they enjoyed the activities on a Sunday morning,” said DPM Wong.
Here are some photos of the morning’s event.
