Dear Mr. Mah
FEEDBACK ON THE PLAYGROUNDS IN TAMPINES
I am a student in Pasir Ris Secondary School the Tampines area is clean and the air very fresh and I am proud to grow up in the Tampines area but I have come to notice that the playgrounds in this area are in dire state. The plastic are vandalized and there are graffiti on the walls of the playground this has aroused my concern on the words written on the walls, namely insults, the young might learn these vulgarities.
To solve this problem, I and my friends have done our research and came up with a design of a playground that would help the children with terminal illness. The playground is based on the story Bridge to Terabithia and we had incorporated brilliant ideas of the layout of the playground. This playground will allow children will terminal illness feel that they are free from their disability allowing them to play like normal children. This will not only benefit the children but the adults as well. They can be free of the worry of the safety of their children as it is ensured by the play ground safety features and a instructor maybe positioned there to ensure first aid is administered if it is needed. We hope you would consider making our dream playground a reality the play ground will be safer, more colorful, cleaner and more efficient.
Yours faithfully,
Matthew Wong Wei Yang
