“An active mind cannot exist in an inactive body”. observed Gen. George Patton and play is recognised as being essential to the personal, social and emotional development of every child. If your quest is for school playground equipment that provides a safe environment where children can learn to manage risk; that is a physically challenging, mentally stimulating, fun, enquiring, peaceful or exciting outdoor space, we would love the opportunity to talk with you and our friendly staff are here to help.
Curriculum learning isn’t confined to the classroom and the classroom needn’t be confined inside the school building. Have a look at Outdoor Teaching or Stages where you will also see amphitheatres for some lovely ideas for group role and imaginative play as well as aiding development in communication and language. We have ideas by the trug full in Grow Your Own and Sand Play to encourage the hands-on approach to investigating mathematical understanding of volume, size and position etc.
For something physically challenging have a look at Climbing Frames and Adventure Trails that will provide opportunities during playtime to burn off some of that enviable energy and can also be incorporated into structured P.E. sessions.
Towers and Forts may not guarantee the same expenditure of calories but can be tailored to offer a good combination of physical, role play, educational and quiet time opportunities. You may also like to look at our Social and Imaginative, Sounds and Sensory gardens section to engage children in observation of the world about them through talking about what they see, hear, touch, taste and smell.
Finally, have a look at some of the testimonials a few of our customers have been kind enough to send - particularly those from the children who have enjoyed our school playground equipment and other installations.
