when someone in Singapore ask you to sign indemnity forms to avoid prosecution for liability, don't take it for granted that it will stand.
There is a law that can overturn this scapegoat clause. Read more and learn how to protect yourself against those trying to wiggle out of responsibility and I would think that covers you on the footpaths in Singapore too and your children in school activities, even though all schools will make parents sign an indemnity form. Don't let it put you off court action to prove the responsibility lies with them and their insurance companies.
It's a little like the MRT Company blaming a little girl for falling onto the track and losing both legs, quite shocking affair.
