My Project

My project aims to provide a class set of floor seats, ensuring that students have access to comfortable and ergonomically designed seating while working on the floor with their peers. This addition will enhance our flexible seating model, allowing students to engage in collaborative learning without discomfort.

Having a comfortable and supportive seating option is essential for maintaining focus and promoting healthy posture in the classroom.

We were fortunate enough to receive floor trays/desks, which have already improved our learning environment. However, without proper seating, students may struggle with posture and discomfort over time. These floor chairs will offer cushioned support and appropriate backrest, helping students maintain good posture throughout the day. A full class set would guarantee that every student has the opportunity to benefit from this resource daily, creating a more inclusive and engaging learning space for all.
