Greentrees Primary School Enjoy Playground Tepee in Bishopdown
Read More
The Mawney Foundation School recognised the importance of providing an outdoor sheltered area for their pupils. A&S Landscape came on board to design a canopy which would cover part of the playground.
Slate Grey - RAL NO. 7015
Opal
A straight roof Motiva Linear canopy was installed at the school, creating a large amount of covered space. The slate grey steelwork complements the surrounding buildings perfectly, creating a subtle, modern effect. Harmful UV rays are blocked by the opal polycarbonate roofing, which also allows some sunlight through.
Playtimes at The Mawney Foundation School can be now be enjoyed outside, no matter the weather. The new canopy has already been a huge hit with the staff and pupils and is a very popular place at break times. Parents can also wait under the shelter at the end of the school day, while they are waiting for their children. We previously installed a fabric tepee canopy at The Mawney Foundation School, so it was great to get to work the team again.
The school can also store play equipment underneath the shelter saving valuable space inside. From wet, windy mornings to hot sunny afternoons, the canopy provides protection against all the elements. We’re certain that this shelter will be a great addition to the school for many years to come.
It’s approximated that in the UK alone, around 40,000 children suffer from playground accidents. A plethora of these even end up in the hospital or A&E, making it key that schools do everything they can to bring about proper playground safety. UK schools across the country face problems with making their playgrounds as safe as possible – thankfully, a lot of these accidents can be averted with observant supervision.
By following safety recommendations and checking surfaces and equipment, you can do a lot to prevent potential accidents that your students may have – making it an area that can be safe and fun to play around in with reduced hazards.
