Our Journey over

Gardens by the Bay

Hello everyone!

Remember me? I am Anban.

I’m so excited that Wei Ling, Arif and Amy can join me on a balloon ride to Gardens by the Bay!

Wei Ling: Oh! Look! That’s the Gardens. There are so many things to

see. Let’s fly closer!

Arif: Wow! Did you know that this used to be the sea? We reclaimed

the land and built something beautiful on it!

1986

2015

Amy: Look! Those are the Supertrees. I read that eleven of the Supertrees use the energy from the sun to give

power to their lights at night!

Arif: That’s the Flower Dome! Did you know that the roof is fitted with sails that open

automatically to provide shade to the plants when it gets

too hot?

Anban: Extra water

from all areas in the Gardens is stored in this lake

and cleansed by the aquatic

plants.

As the children flew over the two lakes in the Gardens,

Anban shared what his father told him.

Wei Ling: Everyone look! It is the playground in the Gardens! Let’s land over

there!

All: Let us join our new

friends at play!

After a short while, the children got back into the balloon for their ride back home.Anban: I love Gardens by the Bay!

Wei Ling: It is a place that plays its part in caring for the environment.

Arif: It is part of Singapore’s dream of becoming a City in a Garden.

Amy: What do you want for Singapore in the future?
