Welcome to Ground-Up Initiative’s telegram channel where we post the latest happenings here at GUI! We hope that through this channel, we can continue to share information that will be beneficial to the community ☘️🥰🤗

GUI wishes Happy Teachers' Day to all the teachers who have inspired and nurtured as in one way or another. As we celebrate the greatness of our teachers today, let’s also celebrate our greatest teacher - Mother Nature. 🌱🌿🍀🌺❤️

The meaning behind “living your best life” has evolved. A true quality lifestyle requires a holistic approach, including advocacy for environmental concerns and mental wellness. Join one of GUI’s Founding Members, Ms Tan Chia Chia and 3 other speakers in a webinar that aims to address these key challenges and more.

Come join our GUI volunteer, Susan McGinney, every Saturday* morning for a fun and easy-going yoga workout! 🧘🏼‍♀️☀️🌱 This is an all levels class so poses and exercises can be modified to suit your needs and abilities. Remember to bring your own yoga mat, towel and water bottle.

Susan understands that it can be difficult to find a sitter and commute back and forth, so she welcomes all participants to bring your family together with you! Children can practice alongside on their own mats or sit nearby and rest or play. The idea is to move your bodies in an outdoor space and get yourselves comfortable in a social setting.

*Classes will begin on 25th September 2021

⚠️ ANNOUNCEMENT ⚠️
The latest SMMs kicked in today (27 Sep). The authority has given us the go-ahead to run programmes with a cap of 50 with the measures that the participants work in groups of 2, wear masks at all times, keep at least 1-metre social distance and avoid mingling as much as we can. Pre-registration for all our programmes is needed as we do not accept walk-ins, which might jeopardise our efforts to keep our community safe.

We sincerely appreciate your support despite this challenging time. You can also support GUI financially by becoming one of our patrons - bit.ly/guipatron

We also look forward to receive your feedback on ways we can brave through this arduous period together - bit.ly/Contact_GUI

We hope for everyone to stay safe and healthy during this period. ❤️

Ground-Up Initiative (GUI), together with our eduPartners, are putting aside 21 November for you to experience our Kampung ecosystem! 🌱☀️🥳

The best part is, you get to choose all the activities you like and have a taste of each all packed in one day!
