“Culture on Wheels” Travelling Trunks (School’s Edition)”

Culture on Wheels is Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre’s (SCCC) inaugural travelling trunks, specially curated for schools. From July 2025 to December 2027, these interactive trunks will visit primary schools across the island, offering students and educators an engaging introduction to various aspects of local Chinese culture – from traditional festivals to intangible cultural heritage and beyond. 

SCCC’s Travelling Trunks present four vibrant themes: Chinese New Year, Mid-Autumn Festival, Chinese Opera, and Lion Dance. Each trunk features educational resources and a diverse range of interactive handling objects. These hands-on materials encourage students to touch, explore, and engage directly with cultural artefacts, deepening their understanding through sensory and experiential learning. Through creative activities such as role-playing, storytelling, and guided exploration, students can immerse themselves in the rich traditions of Singapore Chinese culture in a fun and meaningful way. We invite educators to tap into these resources to create dynamic, memorable, and impactful classroom experiences.

Interested primary schools can register here to loan up to two thematic trunks per school for a period of one month at no cost.
