Children’s Day is nearly here, and Maple Bear Midview City has something extraordinary planned for tomorrow! In celebration of Children’s Day, students and families will gather at the Singapore Zoo for a fun-filled day that includes the symbolic adoption of a baby tree kangaroo, Susu. This event will create unforgettable memories for over 600 children and parents, bringing families closer through engaging activities.
The Adoption of Susu: A Symbolic Gesture
One of the most anticipated moments of the day is the adoption of Susu, a one-and-a-half-year-old Goodfellow’s tree kangaroo. This gesture, planned as part of the Children’s Day festivities, shows Maple Bear Midview City’s dedication to conservation and education.

Tomorrow, families will get the chance to meet Susu and learn about the importance of protecting endangered species. This meaningful adoption connects the students with nature and encourages them to understand their role in preserving the environment.
Exciting Activities for Families During Children’s Day
Maple Bear Midview City has made sure that tomorrow’s Children’s Day celebration will be packed with excitement. The students will perform on stage, showcasing their confidence and talent, which is always a proud moment for parents.

Families can also look forward to fun games, arts and crafts, and even a scavenger hunt, all designed to promote teamwork and bonding. The activities planned aim to bring smiles to everyone’s faces, making it a truly memorable day for both kids and adults.
A Day to Bond and Relax
Tomorrow’s event isn’t just about learning and performing—there will be plenty of time for families to enjoy each other’s company. After the activities, everyone will head to the Forest Lodge at the zoo for a buffet lunch. It’s the perfect opportunity for families to unwind, chat, and savour the festive atmosphere. Celebrating Children’s Day in such a relaxed environment will make the experience even more special for all who attend.
The Importance of Celebrating Children’s Day
Children’s Day is a day to recognise and celebrate the joys of childhood. Schools like Maple Bear Midview City use this occasion to create enriching experiences that help children grow emotionally and socially. Through events like these, children not only have fun but also develop skills that contribute to their overall development. More importantly, they learn the significance of community and nature.
Looking Forward to a Bright Future
As Maple Bear Midview City marks its 10th anniversary and prepares to open a new centre in December 2024, it remains committed to its mission of offering high-quality, bilingual education. The school’s focus on creating lasting, impactful experiences, like the Children’s Day event, highlights how it fosters meaningful connections between children, families, and the wider world.
Tomorrow’s celebration promises to be a memorable one, with the adoption of Susu and the range of activities at the Singapore Zoo providing a unique way to celebrate Children’s Day. Families will leave with not only great memories but also a stronger sense of togetherness and connection to nature.
