Outdoor Classroom for Keyham Barton Primary

July 8th, 2021 1:16 pm

Keyham Barton Primary is a lovely village school in Plymouth. The school approached us after identifying a sheltered area of the playground that was largely underused by the children and offered fantastic potential to create an outdoor learning space.

The school felt that after the children had to endure this last year, now was the time to invest in creating these spaces that would enrich the children’s time at school.

As the area chosen was enclosed on three sides, we designed a timber frame structure with polycarbonate roof to allow the natural light to flood in. The school completed the look with AstroTurf flooring and an interactive whiteboard.  Teaching staff and pupils alike are delighted with the new learning environment, sending us the most wonderful email of thanks….

I would like to pass on our sincere thanks for the wonderful canopy you installed.  I have attached pictures to show you how it looks and how it has transformed the space.  We now have an outdoor learning space/classroom.  We have installed an outdoor whiteboard so now teachers can take lessons outside no matter what the weather.  The children have a space they can shelter from not only the rain, but also the glorious sunshine, as it gets extremely hot in our playground.  

I would also like to thank you all for your support on making this project happen.  From the initial phone call we made, you have been nothing but the most helpful and the speed in which you manufactured, delivered and installed is nothing but amazing.  When the children came to school and saw the canopy they were blown away, as we must not forget everything, we do is to give them the very best education and memories they will carry for ever.
