Welcome on board ‘Start Small Dream Big’ (SSDB) 2021!
Your SSDB 2021 Resource Package contains educational materials contributed by our SSDB Partners. We have compiled a list of these items, along with information on how you and your children can use them for
your community projects. We have also compiled a list of our SSDB Partners’ contacts for you to reach out to them should you need more information on their resources or programmes.
While you are encouraged to work with our SSDB Partners, your centre need not be limited by them – feel free to explore collaboration opportunities with other community partners on your SSDB project too!
