Students are invited to self-explore the Singapore City Gallery, which features a 270-degree panoramic show about life in Singapore from dusk to dawn, where they will be introduced to the challenges of planning for land-scarce Singapore through multimedia interactive exhibits. Through a massive architectural model, students will discover how thoughtful urban design transformed Singapore’s skyline, and how the conservation of heritage buildings adds to making Singapore even more distinctive. They will also gain valuable insights on how URA brings plans to reality through a long-term and integrated planning process. Teachers may write in to enquire about our monthly familiarisation tour and learning resources suitable for the respective age groups.
