Faris' Feedback to MBT.

Feedback about playgrounds in Tampines

Dear Mr Mah Bow Tan,

I am Muhammad Fais Bin Iskander Siregar, a student of Pasir Ris Secondary School from class 2E5. I am involved in a project about building a playground for children who have terminal illnesses. What I am writing to you is regarding the playgrounds located within Tampines.

You are a highly respected man due to the progress that Tampines has made. Under your expert leadership, Tampines has its own Junior College, Temasek Polytechnic, many primary and secondary schools and many other educational centres that are important for our future.

I am about to show you a brief explanation about my group’s project. We are supposed to design a playground meant for children with special needs. We are given options to choose which kind of children we want to build our playground for. So, our group chose the term “terminal illnesses”. Right now, we have already researched on that and built our 3D models.

This led me to reflect on the playgrounds we have. What inspired me to do that is the fact that it would be more fun to play in our playground than those we have in our neighbourhood.

In my opinion, our playgrounds within Tampines are a bit boring as most of the playgrounds are very similar to one another. If we were to compare the playgrounds around Tampines with our 3D model, our #D model of our playground looks more colourful and more exciting with the swings and plastic balls pool.

I would suggest that we build more exciting facilities for the playground, such as plastic balls arenas, swings, a fitness corner for each playground, areas for a group of children to play their own games such as catching, police & thief, dog and bone and fire and ice. That way, children of all ages can interact and socialize with one another.

I hope you will consider my proposal.

Yours sincerely,
Faris
