10 Jun (Sun): Kampung Life on Ubin, with Ivy and 'Ah Ma' and the Singapore Heritage Society

Would you like to know about kampung life on Pulau Ubin? If so, do come to meet Ivy and her mother, Lye Huat Soh, popularly known as ‘Ah Ma’, to understand how three generations of an Ubin family have lived on Ubin.

Experience a show and tell - and also participate! - to get insights into what life was like in the past and how it has changed in the present: the home they built, the everyday tools used in their kitchen, and the challenges of making a living in what remains of rural Singapore.


You'll also learn more about the community restoration project working hand-in-hand with their family to revitalise the kampung in a Singapore Heritage Society initiative called "Kawan Ubin".

The event will be conducted in Mandarin with onsite English translation.
