On 22nd January 2007, we went on a learning journey at Fort Canning Park and Kampong Glam. The aim of this trip was to learn more about our country, Singapore.
We took a bus to Fort Canning Park. It took almost half an hour. During that period, our tour guide, Mr. Kumar, told my class more about the history of Singapore. He also showed some picture to us. He also told us that Sang Nila Utama lived on a hill!!!
After half an hour, we finally reached Fort Canning Park. Mr. Kumar took us to the spice garden first. Then, he showed us the different spices. He also told the uses of each spices and the names of it. One of them is a plant that uses it to make ice-cream!!!
After that, Mr. Kumar told us that we are going to the cemetery! He told us that Miss Ages Joaquim’s tombstone is at the there!!! But the body is at the church nearby. Mr. Kumar also told us that some people had their marriage here.
After seeing the cemetery, we went back to the bus again. We were going to the Kampong Glam. But, in the bus, Mr. Kumar told us that we were going to eat some snacks. After a while, we finally reached the stall. We bought some snacks and we went up to eat after we had paid.
After we had eaten, we headed for the oldest mosque in Singapore, Sultan Mosque. Mr. Kumar told us that we must eat or drink finish then we could go in. When I went in, I put my shoes at the shoes rack. After every one had taken his or her shoes, Mr. Kumar took us in. He had to write his name in a book before we could go in. When we went in, we found that there were no statues! Mr. Kumar then explained why there were no statues. He also told us that when the Malays do their prayers, they will be grouped into men and women. Mr. Kumar then also explained why.
After we had visited the mosque, we went to the Kampong Glam. Mr. Kumar told us that Kampong Glam is a Malay village. He introduced the things there to us. After that, we had our class photo. After that we headed back to the bus again to go back to school.
