Dear Mr. Mah Bow Tan,
Suggestions on how to improve playgrounds in Tampines
I am a student from Pasir Ris Secondary School an I am writing this letter to give suggestions on how to improve the current playgrounds in Tampines to meet the special needs of children. Under your expert leadership, Tampines has been a very busy neighborhood.
My school made a project for our literature lesson. The project is that we have to make a model of a playground fitting a specific theme. The overall theme was that the playground is for children with special needs. My group’s project was to create a playground design basically for children with emotional scar. The playground my group design had 4 levels and it is supposed to be an indoor playground. The first floor was a cozy corner. The second floor is a room filled with musical instruments. The third floor had a merry-go-round and a flying fox. And finally, the fourth floor had a small corner filler with plastic balls for the children and a long slide that is in a spiral going around the playground. The playground was made so that the children can let go of their emotions and relax.
I have only done this much. I have no idea what else to say about the playgrounds in Tampines. I don't want to put my address. Sorry.
