The second one will house a skatepark, wall climbing facilities, and a designated area for table tennis, along with several volleyball and badminton courts. Meanwhile, Pavilion No. 3 will stand five floors tall with a five-a-side football field, a two-story multipurpose room, and multi-functional activity rooms.

The fourth pavilion is made for the little ones and will have an outdoor activity area, an indoor playground, creative classrooms, a reading area, and activity rooms.
