Stories from Our Young Writers
Within these pages lies a delightful tapestry of heartfelt essays and imaginative stories
written by Singapore’s Primary School students. Through their words, you will journey into
the heart of our hawker centres — spaces rich with sizzling sounds, mouthwatering aromas,
and treasured memories. From beloved family meals to meaningful encounters with
hawkers, these young voices offer personal reflections that capture the soul of Singapore’s
hawker culture.
May their stories remind us of the beauty in everyday moments, the warmth of shared
meals, and the importance of preserving this uniquely Singaporean heritage. Let us continue
to celebrate and support the hawkers who nourish both our bodies and our cultural identity,
ensuring that this living tradition endures for generations to come.
“Every plate served at a hawker centre carries a story —
of love, laughter, and the timeless joy of
coming together as one community.”
