Come and join us as we entered Singapore’s first themed indoor mini golf course – LILLIPUTT!


Our Niwa-ians were all geared up for their physical game of indoor golf at LilliPutt!

Our SMRT Space MPV car arrived at the doorstep of Niwa Schoolhouse at 9.30am.

“Let’s go!”

IMG_8816

“Yeah! The car is going fast on the expressway!”


After a long, long, long drive, the Niwa-ians have finally reached their destination – Lilliputt!

IMG_8827

“We are all ready to conquer LilliPutt!”

IMG_8830

“Where are the putters and the golf balls, Ms. Angeline?”

IMG_8831

“I am going to choose the pink golf ball.”

IMG_8833

“I think orange golf ball will be good for me.”

IMG_8834

“Purple is my lucky colour.”

IMG_8835

“I will take my Papa’s favourite red.”

IMG_8837

“Ok, simple white is the best.”

IMG_8838

“Yes, I can be the first to collect my putter.”

IMG_8839

“I am second.”

IMG_8840

“You need to hold the putter in this way.”

IMG_8842

“Hurray! We have our putters ready!”


The Niwa-ians got really lucky and received a complimentary training session from one of the coaches from LilliPutt. Yippee!

IMG_8844

“Children, you need to look straight when you putt.”

IMG_8843

“Oh, this is how you hold the putter.”

IMG_8845

“Next, you swing the putter gently.”

IMG_8846

“We will be careful when we handle the putter later.”

IMG_8847

“Please remember not to swing the putter above your knee level.”

IMG_8852

“WOW, this is amazing!”

IMG_8854

“Please remember the house rules of LilliPutt!”

IMG_8858

“Come on!! Let’s go and play some golf!”
