Holywell Learning Campus add Sheltered Play Area

A striking vision like this requires outstanding attention to detail, bringing together the best products and services in one place.

A&S Landscape was approached to add some additional flair to the beautifully crafted play areas.

Choosing a Maxima Umbrella they were looking to contrast the hard lines of the main building with the more playful aesthetic outside.

We installed two Maxima Umbrellas at 6000mm x 6000mm in a gorgeous sunshine yellow (RAL 1033) paintwork with a white fabric roof. They fitted in right away, looking great and providing much-needed shade for hot summer days.

How shelters can be used to combat rising intake figures and limited budgets at schools

The Department for Education has the task to create the 420,000 new school places that are required between 2016 and 2021 and there are a number of ways that this can be accomplished. New schools are being created, free schools are being funded and current schools are receiving capital funding to manage, upgrade and grow facilities. With allowances being strained, one way that schools are using this capital funding is to make the most of their outside space. Whether to build further classrooms or to add sheltered spaces which can have a great deal of different uses.
