A New Sandpit For Haydn School

The Nottingham team has recently helped out the charity OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning), by building a sandpit in the school playground.

 

The charity is focused on bringing high-quality play back into schools and reintroducing risk and providing opportunity for children to engage in the 16 types of play. Because of this, OPAL have made lots of changes to the playground including a mud kitchen, reading house, scooters, a water area etc. and this was the next project.

 

We have proudly created a space where children can engage in imaginative play, develop motor skills, and enjoy outdoor learning.

 

Feedback from the staff and pupils has been great: In the words of Bella (year 1), "Thursday was the best day ever!" We’d like to give a massive shoutout and express our deepest gratitude to Concorde BGW Ltd for gifting this to us! Your kindness and generosity have brought so much joy to the children already (and let’s be honest, some of the grown-ups too!) and it’s clearly going to become a favourite spot for digging, building and imaginative play. We truly appreciate your efforts in making our space even more fun and engaging. From all of us at Haydn, thank you for the fun, laughter and entertainment that will be had for many years to come!
