BEEN THERE, DONE THAT

When 25 Jun 2019 Where QianHu Fish Farm

Kids from the Pet Lovers Junior Club (PLJC) had their very first fish-themed event held at QianHu Fish Farm and organised by Pet Lovers Centre.

It was a fun-filled day packed with lots of interactive activities and educational takeaways. Pet Care Consultant Keil kick-started the event by introducing the world of fishes to the young enthusiasts through loads of fun facts. They then had the opportunity to take a guided tour of QianHu Fish Farm. QianHu Fish Farm Trading is one of Singapore’s most well-known fish farms, exporting over 1,000 species and varieties of fish to more than 80 countries around the world, and contributing more than 15% of total Singapore ornamental fish exports. This meant there was a lot of fish to discover! It was an eye-opening experience where they not only got to see the different breeds of fishes — betta, goldfish, arowana and many more — but also understand their different needs.

Next up was some hands-on time! Our young participants tried their hand at longkang fishing – a pastime their parents probably enjoyed in their own childhood! It was hard work but probably a first time for many of the children, and proved immensely fun for all. Another big bonus was that the kids got to bring home the fishes that they have caught!

The children also took home PLJC bags with cute stationery — but the most precious thing they took away from the event was probably the wonderful memories of a fun and educational day spent with their pet-loving friends!
