On 17 Sep 2013, our class went on a learning journey to the Peranakan Museum . Miss Carmen Lum also joined us for this trip. This journey is part of our Social Studies Field based learning.
The children were exposed to the Peranakan culture- their clothing, food and religion. Except for a handful, it was the first time to the Peranakan museum for many. The children were also excited as it was their first learning journey as a class out of school.
I am thankful to these parents who agreed to come along as parent volunteers:
1. Mrs Yip ( Jovis' Mum)
2. Mr Joel ( Rain and Cloud's Dad)
3. Mr Ho ( Yee Wai's Dad)
Yee Wai's Dad helped took all the photos in this blog entry except those on the bus journey. It was the first time I went on a learning journey that I don't need to worry about capturing their learning on camera.
It was a fun trip for all. If you would like to visit this museum, it is offering free entry to all Singaporeans.
