Police Academy at Thomson to close, new Academy at CCK in 2006
SINGAPORE : The Police Academy will play host to the Annual Police Week Carnival at Thomson Road for the last time.
The 76-year-old academy grounds will be closed by the end of the year, and a new Police Academy will be located at Choa Chu Kang next year.
The public will have a chance to take a last nostalgic look at the grounds where the carnival will be held on June 11-12.
The 24-hour Adventure Race was first held as part of last year's Police Week, and it will continue to be a highlight for this year's celebrations.
While the events will continue, the Police Academy will soon become part of Singapore's history.
Tan Puay Kern, Director of Public Affairs Department, Singapore Police Force, said: "We are moving over to Choa Chu Kang early next year, and with that move, we may have to bring our parade to the new Home Team Academy next year. As well as for the carnival, we will be having the carnival possibly for the last time at the Police Academy this year."
The Police will also be raising funds for charities, and one of the beneficiaries is the Association for People with Special Needs, the Centre for Adults. For this, the Police hope to raise $250,000.
Besides fun and games, the public will also be able to buy handicrafts made by the less-fortunate at the carnival.
Funds raised will go towards helping train them for gainful employment. - CNA/de -
