A Day of Fun at the Singtel Carnival
This year’s Children’s Day celebrations saw
Edenites reunite with their Singtel Buddies
for a day of fun and games at the Singtel
Carnival! A vibrant showcase of fun and
camaraderie, the carnival transformed
the venue into a lively playground, where
laughter filled the hall thoroughly.
Previously disrupted by Covid-19, Eden
School is once again happy to receive the
invitation from Singtel to be part of the
Singtel Carnival. This year, there were a
total of more than 50 carnival stalls, ranging
from the crowd favourite bouncy castles to
a variety of rides, as well as a photobooth.
As students navigated the stalls, they were
rewarded with a plethora of toys and
snacks as tokens for their participation.
The delightful prizes ranged from plush
toys to familiar snacks, adding to the festive
atmosphere.
Edenites played dress up in animal
costumes, with some taking photos with
King Julien from DreamWorks ever-popular
movie, Madagascar! The day was littered
with countless joyful moments as students
engaged in the different games at the stalls
spanning the entire Expo Hall. Besides a
sumptuous bento, participants were also
treated to popcorn. Our foodies were in
for a treat!
As the day wrapped up, it was clear that the
Singtel Carnival was more than just games; it
was a celebration of community, friendship,
