Dear SITizens, we are into the 3rd week of the new trimester, and I am sure that everyone of us is excited about the new Punggol campus, with some of us already calling it home since the start of the new Tri.

We would like to share that there are still existing works being carried out and we seek your understanding to be Vigilant.

In any case of a fire alarm 🔥🚨 being activated accompanied with shutters coming down, please stay calm and do not panic. There is a high chance that it is a false alarm as routine checks are being carried out currently.

Should the announcement persist, there are existing signages in red beside the escalators that state the nearest area that you should evacuate to.

Should you require further assistance, do reach out to your respective staff ICs!
