Our consultants can design playgrounds suitable for junior, middle or upper primary students, or any combination of these age groups. A range of activities aimed at developing gross motor skills and increasing upper body and lower body strength are utilised. Fitness Track items will also provide additional opportunities to assist in developing children's physical skills. Play and recreation are a vital component in child development. A well-planned outdoor play area not only provides a great place to play but also encourages social interaction, creativity and physical skills development. We need to provide as many play opportunities as we can for all children. Because students have a range of interests and abilities they may play in different ways at different times. Ideally, a range of play areas for both boys and girls of different ages should be provided. Children should be encouraged to participate in play activities that are both stimulating and challenging within a safe environment. Play activities that aid in developing children's upper and lower body strength, cross patterning skills, balance and general coordination as well as imaginative play can be easily incorporated in most playground designs. A well-planned play area can be effective in motivating the children to actively participate in outdoor play - because it's fun. Key issues to consider when planning a school playground include: Available area Budget Age group Undersurfacing Maintenance Australian Standards Department of Education Guidelines Shade Student/teacher/parent consultation. We can assist you in all of these areas when assessing a school's playground requirements. SafePlay understand that school playgrounds are important. We have the knowledge and experience to design play areas to suit the children's age and physical development and to fit in to schools budget and landscape requirements. SafePlay offer a free design service and with our sound knowledge of Australian Standards we ensure that school playground equipment is adventurous and challenging, yet safe, practical, functional and fun. When looking at a play area we also consider outdoor seating requirements. SafePlay has an extensive range of FORPARK benches, seating, tables, bins and bike racks suitable for schools. Most importantly, a school playground should be effective in motivating children to actively participate in outdoor play – because it's fun. Click here to see our designs
