KQ2: How do people acquire sense of place in their
neighbourhood?
Success Criteria:
1. I can describe sense of place
• Our sense of place is the result of experiences with natural and built environment, and
regular interaction with others.
• It can involve both positive and negative experiences that either occurred at or
associated with certain places.
• The built environment may also feature public symbols that reflect a community’s
response to a tragedy, serving as a place for people to preserve their memories of loved
ones.
• We may also develop attachment to everyday places such as shops at town centres
because of our interaction with people at these places.
• Our experiences with people in natural and build environments help us to develop a
sense of place, enabling us to feel that we belong to our neighbourhoods.

KQ2: How do people acquire sense of place in their
neighbourhood?
Success Criteria:
3. I can explain how sense of place is represented
• Different representations, including emotions expressed by others in the media might
enhance or contradict our sense of place.
• Our sense of place shapes our identity.
• Thus, we respond well to media content that agrees with how we feel about places in
our neighbourhood as they add new layers of meanings to places that we have
developed attachment, enhancing our future experiences of them.
• Media also helps us understand our neighbourhoods better through good storytelling
that reveals interesting information about people and events.
• Inevitably, we respond defensively, dismissing media content that challenges our sense
of place as distortions or untruths.

• Long-term plans at the national level seek to achieve this by optimising scarce land
resources to cater to diverse needs of current and future generations.
• The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) coordinates the long-term planning for
Singapore which maps out land uses, and infrastructure needs over the next 50 years.
• Land planning consider these diverse needs and competing land uses, and make space
for key infrastructure such as expressways, train lines and cycling networks to ensure
connectivity for all.

KQ4: How are neighbourhoods organized in Singapore?
Success Criteria:
3. I can account for town planning in Singapore
• As Singapore is both a city and a sovereign state, we need to accommodate other uses
that are typically not located in cities.
• This includes military facilities, waste treatment plants, power stations, seaports and
airports.
• E.g. Senoko Water-to-Energy Plant, which uses heat from burning wastes to produce
electricity. Agencies and stakeholders had to work together to manage pollution
concerns as they located the plant near two large towns (Woodlands and Sembawang)
and maximise benefits such as job creation and education opportunities for students.
