My Project

Recess is a vital part of the school day, providing students with a much-needed break to refresh their minds and bodies. However, our recess time currently lacks the dynamic and engaging equipment that can turn this break into a truly invigorating experience. That’s why we’re reaching out to you for support to revitalize our recess with exciting new equipment that promotes physical activity, creativity, and social interaction.

Project Goals:

Enhance Physical Activity: We aim to provide students with scooter boards that encourage movement, coordination, and teamwork. These versatile boards will not only make recess more active but also help students develop their gross motor skills.

Foster Creativity and Play: Chalk will be used for outdoor games and creative drawing activities. It will allow students to design their own games, create art, and express themselves in imaginative ways.

Promote Fun and Engagement: We are seeking additional fun equipment, such as frisbees, jump ropes, and bean bags, to diversify recess activities. These items will ensure that all students, regardless of their interests, find something enjoyable and engaging to do.
