Total Defence Day in Singapore, celebrated every 15 February, reminds everyone how important it is to protect and care for the country. On this day, people learn about different ways to keep Singapore strong and safe. These include military defence, civil defence, economic stability, social unity, and psychological readiness. It's like a team working together, where everyone, including kids, helps in their own way to keep the country strong, happy, and safe. It also honors the day during World War II when Singapore was occupied, reminding everyone why it's important to defend and protect their home.
