20120928_Playright_Final06Thirty-four (34) participants from various private, government and commercial sectors throughout Hong Kong successfully completed the two day playground maintenance technician training program. There was also one participant who traveled from Singapore to preview the program for its application and introduction into the Singapore public playground industry.

This training opportunity was hosted by the Playright Children’s Play Association of Hong Kong on January 7th and 8th in Chai Wan City. The course venue was Youth Square, a special youth education facility, next to Chai Wan Park. I invite you to view the attached public relations video which explains the mission of the Playright organization. Playright has worked closely with the International Playground Safety Institute and most recently with Ken Kutska, honorary member of the Playright Advisory Board, to bring the NRPA Certified Playground Safety Inspector Course and Exam to Hong Kong. Playright is an inspiration to all who support the value of play for all people. Playright is a not-for-profit organization operating on donations and receives no government funding.
