Through the help of
the pupils, parents,
teachers, Salesians,
maintenance, and
funds gathered from
the stage play, this
playground was made
possible.
A playground is
important to a
growing child for him
to develop various
skills like physical
strength, social skills,
imagination and
creativity, thinking
and problem solving
skills, and sense of
self, connection and
care. During this age,
the learning process
of a child is
reinforced through
play wherein he
learns to acknowledge
success and failure,
which is very
important to stabilize
his emotions.
