Description of Programme
Did you know that Kallang has a history going back 400 years? While many are familiar with the Singapore Story, the Kallang Story is far less well-known – but participants coming on this walking trail will be enlightened and entertained about it.
Participants will understand Kallang’s colonial, wartime, and postwar history as a mirror of Singapore’s journey from colonial outpost to nationhood.
They will discover fun facts such as what existed before the Sports Hub was built in the Kallang area. They will learn how Singapore took the long and hard road to self-government and independence. They will realise the rich sport and art heritage Singapore has.
By the end of the programme, participants will see the physical transformation of Kallang as a microcosm of the social, economic and political development of Singapore. By touring Kallang, they will see an inspiring vision of the future of Singapore. They will get the subtle messages that no one owes Singapore a living, we must ourselves defend Singapore, and that we, as Singaporeans, must have confidence in our future.
