Hari Raya Celebrations 2026
On 31 March 2026, Tampines Meridian Junior College came alive with the
festive spirit of Hari Raya Aidilfitri in a vibrant college-wide celebration
that brought students and staff together. 🎉
The celebration began in the college hall with a lively Hari Raya concert,
where the entire college gathered to enjoy a series of engaging performances.
A highlight of the concert was the Raya Rhythm Challenge, where members
of the staff took to the stage and danced to traditional Hari Raya songs.
Their energetic and spirited performance was both entertaining and heartwarming,
lifting the atmosphere and bringing cheers from the audience. The programme
showcased the rich cultural heritage of the Malay community, setting a
warm and festive tone for the day. ✨
Following the concert, the celebrations continued at the TM Oasis, where
students and teachers participated in the “Sharing of Hari Raya Goodies”
segment. This interactive experience featured various stations that allowed
participants to immerse themselves in the sights, tastes, and traditions
of Hari Raya.
The celebration offered a flavorful journey through tradition, starting
with a sampling of beloved Hari Raya classics like kuih bangkit and kuih ros.
Beyond just tasting, students and teachers gathered for a live culinary
session, providing hands-on experience of the meticulous craft and heritage
required to prepare these festive delicacies. Altogether, 500 bowls of
aromatic chicken curry and roti kirai were served. The tasting experience
certainly brought the community together through the universal language
of good food. 🤤
This year’s celebration not only provided an enjoyable and immersive cultural
experience but also strengthened the college’s commitment to fostering
inclusivity, mutual respect, and appreciation of Singapore’s multicultural
identity. đź’•
