Hort Park - Playgrounds

At the Hort Park, besides being a park filled with many beautiful flowers and plants, there are space for a playground for the kids.

The kids have a wonderful time playing with them.

Hort Park - Clean and Clean Campaign Exhibition

At the clean and green campaign at Hort Park, there's an exhibition of the then and now of Singapore.

It brought back memories of the time when I was younger, living in a not so clean environment. But now everything is so organised and clean.



An example of the street hawker back then in the 60s, the utensils they used are so old and discoloured but now hawkers will be fined or suspended if their stalls are unclean.



Now the sweeper's job are easier and high tech, they are help with machines and make it more attractive so that people will want to work as sweeper.

Hort Park - Part 4 - Green and Clean Campaign Part 4

A special corner for kids who are too young to join the other games at the campaign.
Kids love drawings and colourings.

My little niece decided to have a tattoo and no, it is not a permanent one, just a stick on and removable tattoo for kids.

Hort Park - Clean and Green Campaign - Part 3

Also at the Clean and Green Campaign are other educational programmes and games.



There's a lot of people queuing to play games, one reason being they get free gifts...lol. I am the lazy sort, I dont like to queue and I prefer taking photos...hehehe

My World Tuesday - Hort Park - Clean and Green Campaign (Part 2)

Everyone so interested and curious with this vending machine at the exhibition of Clean and Green Campaign 2010 held at Hort Park. No, it is not a drinks or food vending machine, it is a reverse vending machine for recycled materials. We just feed the machine with recycled materials and the machine will automatically separate it to plastic, can or glass.
And no, I did not try out the machine, there's a long queue of people queuing to try the machine and I dont like long queue.
A short video showing the company's representative explaining how the machine works.
Another short video of curious onlookers . I am curious about the machine too cause this is the first time we see this machine in Singapore although other countries are already using it.

Please visit "That's my World" for other parts of the world.

Hort Park - Pledge to Go Green

I am back to blogging but need time to retun back to my normal blogging and blog visiting...lol. Will be very busy these two months with so many programmes and celebrations going on.

Visited the Hort Park during the weekend for the Clean and Green Singapore 2010. It is so much fun and I took the green pledge today towards a cleaner and greener Singapore.

We had our little thumbs painted with either green or yellow to take the pledge and the patterns of our thumbprints looked like a tree.

I took a short video of this lady who also took the pledge.
It is so educating and fun and I have lots of photos coming up and my favourite are the flowers that I saw in Hort Park and having fun with my little niece. I am so glad she share my interests in taking photos of flowers.
