Hello dear Villagers! The new year has brought about new things around and about at myVillage. For one, we have got a new shuttle bus route and timetable to better suit your needs! Follow this link below to see our new shuttle bus route and timetable!
Just a quick overview of the start and end times:
Lunch Route from 11.45 am to 2.40 pm (AMK) and 11.38 am to 3.09 pm (Tai Seng)
I’ve been working hard since the start of this year to do this, and now I’m proud to tell all of you that we’re finally ready to run my Filmhouse Festival.
Before I left on my odyssey which saw me riding camels in the Sahara, amongst many other things, I remember totally enjoying my weekend afternoons catching movies with Marley & Jules. We were all teenagers then, so relaxing and hanging out with them while taking in some celluloid stories was a great memory.
I wanted to do the same thing with you – have a great time and remember the occasion. That’s why earlier this year, I sent Marley & Jules on a hunt for great movies to watch with you. I was excited already, but when they showed me what they found, I got even more excited.
Yes, we got the Academy Award Nominated Disney Hit “Frozen”!
But I felt like we were still missing something, so I rang up a few favours and we got even more exciting items like:
All this is happening on
Time for you to come to myVillage, L2 Concierge counter to pick up your movie passes! Each pass entitles you to 1 Goodie bag (with lots of tenant vouchers and premiums) as well as 1 Lucky Draw Chance!
Don’t miss out on this. I only do this once a year!
See you there,
Hugh
If you missed the St Peter’s Choir performance last weekend at our Christmas Light-Up, don’t fret. Our friends will be back on the 14th of December at 7.30pm to lead the community in Christmas caroling with the community!
In addition, St Peter’s Ladies’ Workshop will be setting up booths in December to showcase the love and care that goes into homemade arts & crafts.
Look forward to tote bags, wrist bags, pouches, “pot” holders, brooches, hair accessories and scarfs made from wool, cloth, ceramic and paper!
It’s starting to feel a lot like Christmas!
Visit our Facebook and Twitter pages for more information, pictures and updates!
See you there!

The Gift that Keeps on Giving continues at myVillage. Throughout the festive period, till 25 December 2013, the best photograph of yourself at myVillage with the hashtag #myvillagesg stands a chance to win a Canon EOS 110D! Simply follow these steps:
16 November 2013 (SINGAPORE) – Christmas is the season of giving, and in recent years myVillage has carried on its tradition of giving something back to the community. This year, we have taken that to a higher level.
On top of our annual light-up and more recently our member’s only appreciation dinner, myVillage was transformed into a donation centre for Club Rainbow (Singapore), where the shoppers were invited to gift wrap presents for the children of the charity, and donate items that they would like to give as gifts to them. Edward Chye, owner of myVillage, explained the focus for the mall, “myVillage is part of the community. We are a mall that believes in sharing, just like you would share with your family. And because of that we believe in participating in the spirit of giving. And this allows us to do it in a big way.”
It was an evening of joy and laughter as regular shoppers and new guests shared in the occasion of the annual myVillage light-up. This year, almost 300 people were able to experience the community spirit as myVillage kicked off its Christmas celebrations with the member’s appreciation dinner on the roof. This is double the number from last year, as part of our efforts to make sure we are able to bring more people together.
Realising that the true meaning of this festive season can sometimes be lost in the heady rush of consumerism, Consulus, the brand agency for myVillage, made sure that myVilage was careful to stick to the true spirit of Christmas.
“We’ve always aimed for myVillage to be a warm, welcoming space, not just a faceless mall. We plan things like this to bring people together, turning this into a true Community space. Our strategy is to make the space meaningful to everyone that comes into Serangoon Garden.” said Kenneth Lee, Senior Manager, Social Strategy.
Guests of myVillage can still leave their well-wishes within the mall by picking up and writing on special tags that they can then hang around the mall, on the several Christmas trees within. Tags can be found at our Customer Service Counter.
myVillage looks forward to continuing the tradition of unity and community involvement for years to come.
