SPECIAL EVENT
During COVID-19, many of us have been feeling a renewed sense of gratitude towards the essential workers and migrant communities of Singapore. The crisis has made us look again at how we acknowledge these essential contributions, and these people in our community who built Singapore.
Led by Renita Sophia Crasta, this session will take us behind the scenes into the lives of these migrant workers, giving us a glimpse into their journey in this fight against COVID-19 so that we can better understand our migrant workers friends and their place amongst us.
This will be a live screening session which includes sharing from a guest speaker and a short craft session, followed by a Q&A session with the audiences.
If you would like to participate in the craft session, the materials needed are:
- paper
- colouring and writing materials

Let’s Talk About Series:
Let’s Talk About is a four-part series that delves deep into the unseen, unspoken and unsung parts of Singapore. Designed for young people aged 6 – 12, these engaging sessions provide a way for parents and educators to unpack pertinent and relevant topics with young learners.
Let’s Talk About has been developed in collaboration with The Birthday Collective specifically to encourage all of us to think again about current topics, and to build empathy in the way that we respond in complex situation. After an introduction by a guest speaker, each session will provide a practical hands-on activity that enables us to process new ideas and a live Q&A session with an opportunity to ask follow-up questions.
Find out more about this Let's Talk About Series.
