Playground Equipment For Key Stage 2
As Key Stage 2 learners progress and become more and more mature, they need to have access to an outdoor learning environment that still pushes them to achieve more.
At this stage in their development, children have identified certain strengths and weaknesses that they have and our innovative playground designs can help children develop their strengths further and help rectify their weaknesses. For instance, our Multi-Use-games-Area (MUGA) will give children the platform to practice a sport that they are naturally gifted at and a Wildlife Area can be used to introduce children to concepts such as PH levels which will help prepare them for topics in secondary school.
The space previously was laid to grass and over the winter months was unusable due to it becoming extremely wet and muddy. However in the summer months, it was the only area in the school where pupils could shelter from the hot sun. Therefore although useful, we weren’t able to use this area imaginatively and pupils were limited to bringing small outdoor toys to the area which brought its own challenges. The adventure play area now serves all the pupils and they have clearly really loved using and exploring all the equipment.

Chris and Julian have done an amazing job! hey have been extremely considerate and have handled parents wanting to access the site. They have checked on positions of installations and left the area safe and tidy each night. Certainly the best contractors we've had on site for a long time!

We are quite an outdoorsy school with extensive grounds and even in non-covid times, we wanted a facility where children can be outside in all weathers whether that’s at lunchtimes, to read, use as a library or as an intervention space. We also wanted somewhere where we could literally bring the children’s learning outdoors as we have a pond, an allotment and this seemed like a natural next step where children could go and do their work afterwards. With the addition of the benches, it also makes it feel like a real outdoor classroom and is multi-use which we are really happy with.

Everyone loves our new outdoor area. From design to completion we have been impressed by the service given by Pentagon Play. Working together has allowed us to create an area that provides a wonderful addition to our brand new Early Years building, giving an outdoor environment where children can flourish.
