Abstract
Timeline Singapore takes a trip down Mt. Sophia, a place that has been home to a succession of schools since the 19th century. "For centuries, Mount Sophia - or the mountain of wisdom - quietly served as a residential hub for immigrant Jews and flamboyant tycoons; a district where traditional Chinese schools stood next to missionaries schools; an area where faiths of different races erected their places of worship. Find out how this stoic hill, situated just 10 minutes from Dhoby Ghaut, manages to retain its quiet charm. And how its colourful communities are banding together to guard its place despite its increasingly busy surroundings"--Channel NewsAsia.
