Challenge

AMV Playground Solutions provided a full suite of playground sports equipment and a new sheltered space to The Halifax Academy, an all-through 4-16 school.

With diverse age groups sharing the playground space it was decided to section off an area specifically for early years, and the large space was divided for ball games to help with organisation among the classes.

Solution

AMV worked with the school to divide the external spaces into separate areas with a covered space for early years, a new football / basketball court and a tennis net.

Products supplied:

  • Multi-sport goal units supporting football, basketball, hockey and cricket

  • Steel tennis nets

  • Early years enclosed canopy

  • Playground markings

Result

The steel goal structures help to create seemingly enclosed court space for ball games to be played safely. While behind sit the steel tennis nets that further divide the space and allow for the option of tennis or segregated break time play space.

The canopy and fence surrounding the early years' play area, along with the vibrant and fun playground markings, have created a new space for the younger pupils to enjoy and also act as an area to extend the classroom outside.

The result is an easily managed playground space that is adaptable to all ages and allows for multiple age groups to have break times at the same time.
