Mention the last day of school holiday and many children would groan. After all, many would have gotten used to the more idyllic pace of school holidays where there is no school, homework or CCA. To make sure these children have a memorable last day of the long June vacation, the Bishan East Grassroots Organisations organised the Bishan East Family Day with the theme of "Back to Kampung" on Sunday, 27 June 2010 at the Bottle Tree Park.
On the early Sunday morning, busloads of Bishan East residents woke up early to join Mr Wong Kan Seng, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Home Affairs, Member of Parliament for Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC at the carnival. Families braved the light drizzle which cleared up fortunately to be entertained by the programs put up for their delight. There were overwhelming participants for the Photo Hunt game where residents searched high and low within the compound to locate the special landmarks and items. For anglers who prefer more serene activities, they took to the lakes to pit their fishing skills to see who had the bigger catch of fishes or prawns in the ponds. Meanwhile, toddlers and young children were kept occupied with the colouring activity and longkang fishing!
We hope that parents and their children had a truly wondering time to bond through these interesting outdoor activities.
