As a nature lover, I have gone on many guided walks at our parks before. On 25 March, I went on yet another one – the 'Roots, Shoots and Fruits' guided walk at Sengkang Riverside Park. However, that day's experience was different. This was because I helped organise this guided walk for a group of intellectually disabled students from Lee Kong Chian Gardens (MINDS) school (LGS). This was my first time organising a community service event at our parks, and I must admit I was slightly nervous.

On a sunny Thursday afternoon last December, when most were going about their daily routines, a group of family and friends gathered at Sungei Serangoon Park Connector, at the top of the hill overlooking the park connector and the gleaming waters of Serangoon Reservoir.

Nature Ways are linear, green corridors along roadsides that have been developed to connect areas of high biodiversity to urban areas.
