On 25 April 2019 (Thursday), our children joined Preschool Market for “Eco Kampung Carnival 2019” at Bayfront Pavilion, Gardens By The Bay as one of our “Start Small Dream Big” 2019 Projects.
Eco Kampung Carnival is held to educate children on green habits. The idea is to teach children about eco-friendly habit and on importance of keeping our Earth healthy through various fun activities. Also, to create awareness about common environmental issues like conservation of water and electricity; and needs to grow more plants.
