Feedback on Playgrounds in Tampines

Minister Mah Bow Tan

Dear Mr Mah Bow Tan,

Feedback on Playgrounds in Tampines


I am Ryan Chew Wenjie from Pasir Ris Secondary school. I am writing to feedback about Playgrounds in Tampines and to suggest on how it can be improved. My school has been doing a project about Playgrounds and how it can be improved. After some time, we found creative and interesting ways of how to improve the playgrounds in Tampines.

Currently, the playgrounds in Tampines don’t really have what a child would really want in a playground.
And most of the playgrounds have spider webs on the monkey bars, children
that notice this, would not want to climb the monkey bar therefore, the playground would not be able to be used to its fullest.
The playgrounds are a little dirty too because of litter and because of the rain. The rain also causes the playground to be wet and children would not be able to play in the playground for quite awhile, waiting for it to dry. The color of the playgrounds are a little boring too, the slides and swings are all the same color. The children would find the playground boring after awhile.

The playground could be improved in ways such as, the monkey bars and the other parts of the playground could be cleaned regularly to remove any dirt or spider webs. The rain is quite a disturbance to the children and this can be stopped by either building the playground under the block or making the playground sheltered and also build a sheltered walkway from the block to the playground. The playground could have more colors too.

These are my feedback and suggestion, thank you for taking time to read this letter.

Yours sincerely,
Ryan
