About the Event
Join us for a fun and interactive storytelling session where children journey from the vibrant coral reefs beneath the sea to the fascinating forests of the wild. Through two engaging stories – WOOSH: A Coral’s Journey and The Watcher – young participants will discover the wonders of marine life and wildlife conservation, brought to life by trained volunteer storytellers. With a mix of storytelling, visuals, and hands-on activities, this session sparks curiosity, nurtures a love for nature, and inspires children to care for our planet – both below the waves and among the trees.
This programme is suitable for children aged 3 to 10 years old.
Programme Objective:
To teach children about Singapore's marine biodiversity and inspire them to care about our marine environment through art and story writing.
