The playground was funded by a US$3 million (S$3.9 million) donation from the Magical Bridge Foundation through its donors Amanda Toh-Steckler and the late Vincent Steckler.<\/p>\n
The donation was made to the Garden City Fund, which is NParks’ registered charity and Institution of Public Character.<\/p>\n
Various key stakeholders within the Tampines neighbourhood, including SPD Singapore, Metta School, Thye Hua Kwan EIPIC Centre and MY World, were also consulted during the design process.<\/p>\n
NParks said: “Their inputs helped to ensure the playground would serve the needs of the local community, including people who are often left out of traditional play spaces.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“NParks will continue to work with community partners, donors, and the public to develop inclusive spaces across Singapore’s parks and nature areas, so that every visitor, regardless of age or ability, can enjoy the benefits of nature and play.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
