Hougang Holy Holy Christmas Party 2013

Updated <abbr title="Sunday, December 22, 2013 at 3:13pm" data-utime="1387696422" class="timestamp">about 3 weeks ago</abbr>

Held on 14th December 2013, residents and friends of Hougang SMC gathered to join us on a cold, wet night filled with magical fun and surprises. Children were able to redeem goodie bags filled with party items, cookies and snacks and were also entitled to play at the 3 game stalls namely Angry Bird, Egg Toss and a Red Dino Bouncy Castle outlet. The stage programs line-up included singing performances by church carolers & Singapore idol, Sylvester Sim, a magic show by NCMP Yee Jenn Jong, a guzheng ensemble performance and a dance item by the K2 kids from Sunshine Kids Educare. And as the rendition of an old Christmas classic – Silent Night was being belted out on stage by HGCC and MP Png Eng Huat, it started snowing! Snowflakes fluttered throughout the stage amidst shrill screams of thrill from the children below. The adults were visibly surprised too. From the smiling faces of the partipants, this Christmas Party has given the residents and friends of Hougang SMC pleasant memories to bring home with. Here’s wishing all a blessed Christmas!

A very big thank you to the conservancy workers who work hard day in day out to make the estate a pleasant place to live in; and especially extra hard on this Lunar New Year's eve to make sure everything is sparkling clean for new horse year. (6 photos)

A resident made me this pair of beautiful 'angpao' fish for CNY. I can't stop admiring the handiwork... very nicely done!

Here's wishing everyone a healthy and happy Year of the Horse!

Folklore has it that the hokkiens escaped mistreatment by ruthless army in ancient China by seeking refuge in a sugarcane plantation. They emerged unharmed on the 8th day of Lunar New Year. The belief is that the Jade Emperor (Thee Kong ) protected them from being caught, which is why the Hokkiens offer thanksgiving prayers to him.

The prayers start at 11pm on the 8th day of Lunar New Year and continue into the early hours of the 9th day of Lunar New Year. In less than an hour, many residents will start their prayer offerings, please remember to practise considerate joss papers/incense burning and adopt safety measures while carrying out these traditional rites. And keep a look out for your friendly MP Png Eng Huat who will be making his rounds around the estate shortly. Do wave and say hi.
