Here's what you missed: Perenakan Heritage-Photoshoot Tour to Joo Chiat

 On 21st July 2012, the IBAH competition photographers went on to a Perenakan Heritage-photoshoot tour to Joo Chiat, with CHIJ Katong Secondary School girls acting as our guides.  

This heritage trail is organized by Singapore Heritage Festival 2012. As one of the partners for the festival, The Frontier CC YEC was delighted to bring participants to immerse in the perenakan culture of Singapore.
