NLB Tweens S.T.E.A.M Lab

On 17th & 18th November 2018, staff from the National Parks, Gardens and Nature Reserves (NPGNR) cluster put together a booth at the Tweens S.T.E.A.M Lab event organised by the National Library Board. The event was set at the Woodlands Regional Library and aimed to encourage all children and teens to explore themes related to Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics.

A combined total of more than 500 participants and parents made their way through our booth to learn more about Singapore’s native biodiversity. The team brought along a wide selection of flora and fauna specimens found in the different local habitats e.g. rainforest, mangroves, intertidal zones etc for display. Through a series of show-and-tell, interactive games and hands-on craft, the captivated audience discovered how they can play a part in conserving Singapore’s natural heritage.
