Colourful MCS Math and Science Park: Fun place for Learning

Who says learning and having fun are two different things? Manticao Central School just
combined them into one by building a Math Park and Science Park that features landmarks that
not only makes the child learn, but also enjoy staying there at the same time. Teachers and all
personnel joined forces together to make Manticao Central School not only a place for learning
but also fun and enjoyable for all learners.

The Math Park features colourful landmarks that indicate basic and advanced
mathematical lessons like the numerical 1st 2nd 3rd etc., basic mathematical operations and the
like. Even pupils can play dama on their customized rubber table! The Science Park also displays
beautiful landscapes that show the different rock formations, very bright murals on the walls
that displays the different constellations and the solar system. They also have a gigantic spider
web which pupils can play around with and the highlight of the place would be the mini-pond
that gives you a beautiful view of aquatic creatures like real-life fishes.

What will amaze you more is the fact that all of the materials used in the parks are all
recycled, from plastic bottles to rubber car wheels and damaged plastics from garbages, not
only the place is fun and educational, but it also gives a vision to the students that you can
create beautiful things from recycled materials so that they can be awakened in saving the
environment.
