Join Uncle Chris for a scenic journey through Singapore’s educational legacy and, at the same time, explore the evolution of Singapore’s educational system. While I can’t claim to understand today’s school syllabuses in Science, Technology, Mathematics, or the Humanities, I can promise an in-depth look at how our institutions of learning have grown and shaped the region.

There’s a reason travel agencies bring foreigners on tours of Singapore’s universities. NUS (National University of Singapore) and NTU (Nanyang Technological University) are renowned across Asia and beyond. But unlike those tour groups, we’ll steer clear of their buses and canteens – no intruding on students’ spaces here! Instead, we’ll enjoy a scenic walking tour that delves into the history and achievements of our universities, focusing on NUS, which takes a friendlier stance towards visitors compared to NTU.

We’ll uncover what makes NUS one of Asia’s most sought-after universities, known for its rigorous standards and vibrant campus life. I’ve seen the hard work firsthand – my two daughters studied there in the early 2000s, and I’m sure you’ll gain a new appreciation for what it takes to thrive in such a competitive environment.

Our journey begins on Sun, 2nd Feb 2025, at 9am, outside Clementi MRT. The tour will end at the Lee Kong Chian Museum, likely around 11 to 11:30am.

After the tour, I highly recommend visiting the museum to marvel at its priceless collection of dinosaur skeletons – rumoured to have cost between $8 to $12 million! We’ll discuss these ancient giants and more when we meet.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience the story of Singapore’s educational excellence. Let’s walk, learn, and uncover the secrets behind our world-class institutions together. See you there!
