How to make school playground improvements
29 Sep 2018, Posted by in Recent Installations, Schools
No matter how great your school playground is, there’s always room for improvement.
School playground improvements and ‘problem areas’ will be different for each school, depending on the playground and the school environment.
Commonly, improving the condition of play areas and equipment, green spaces, gardens and the landscaping are priorities for schools.
Once these problem areas have been identified, it’s time to think about how they could be improved.
Ways to make school playground improvements
Ways to improve your school’s playground and outdoor space could be as simple as organising clutter, tidying mess and regular maintenance.
Or it could involve bigger changes such as installing a new surface material on the school grounds, like synthetic grass.
Recently, Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Primary school at Acacia Ridge decided to do away with the unsightly outdoor bitumen area.
They had GroundAbility come in to replace the tired surface with synthetic grass and create an inviting and tranquil sanctuary.

Investing a little love into your school playground and making simple changes to the outdoor environment can go along way. Wynnum State High School transformed an unused area of dirt and gravel by installing synthetic grass over the entire area.
The once wasted space is now a bright and functional sitting and outdoor learning area for students.
