Action

Splashing Fun: Emceeing the "Meet the Mascot" Roadshows for Primary Schools

Over the past weeks, I had the privilege of being the emcee for the World Aquatics Championships – Singapore 2025 school engagement and outreach roadshows, specially created for primary school students! 


This time, instead of I emceeing & moderating conversations with our Singapore Aquatics Team Singapore athletes, we brought the excitement straight to the kids with our two lovable mascots — Ollie the Otter & Dewey the Dugong!

So Much Fun with the 11th Production Mascot Team

I also want to share how much I enjoyed working with the mascots from 11th Production. Both on and off stage, their team brought so much energy, professionalism, and genuine passion to every school engagement roadshow. 

If you ever need a mascot team that really cares & delivers with heart, I highly recommend 11th Production. 

As a social enterprise, hiring them means you’re supporting a good cause too. 

The mascot images in this post are from 11th Production’s Instagram, where you can see even more of their great work. Thank you, 11th Production!

Learning Through Play: Six Aquatic Sports

The moment Ollie and Dewey appeared on stage at each roadshow, the whole hall lit up! 


With a fun storyline and interactive games, we introduced the six exciting sports featured at the World Aquatics Championships. The kids even got to join in activities, from trying out artistic swimming moves to a EXCITING “water polo” team challenge!

Q&A: Everyone Was Listening!

After all the fun and games, we tested how well the students had been listening with a mascot Q&A session, and it was clear they not only enjoyed themselves, but had retained knowledge too!

A Big Thank You for the Memories

I’m truly grateful to have been the emcee for these many joyful events. Thank you to the World Aquatics Championships Singapore 2025 and Aux Media Group teams for trusting me, the energetic 11th Production mascots who are so fun to work with, and to all the teachers and students who made every roadshow so energetic and memorable!
