Discovery Adventurer

This huge Discovery Adventurer was installed for a very lucky family in the North West.  They wanted to make use of the end of their big garden.  The end result looks fantastic and is made to measure!

They chose a tube slide, wave slide, climbing wall, fire pole, ramp, swings and monkey bars.  The installation took 2 days to install by our team.

After a delayed install due to Covid-19 we finally got the Tetbury Goods Shed Play Area up and running.  It was a wonderful project to work on and the client was a dream to work with.  The whole process from first hole dug to completion took around 2 weeks.

We built everything from scratch from the Train to the working Signal Box.  All fenced in and secure.

Play Towers and Monkey Bars

2 x Discovery Play Towers with linked bridge and extended traverse wall section.  We also added a balcony with Monkey Bars and a large Spider Web Net.  The guys spent the last day laying the safety grass mats and getting these great photos.  Forest Hill Play Area, Oxfordshire.

A nursery in Twickenham asked us to build them one of toddler towers for their little ones.  It sat really well in their existing bark area.  We installed a staircase for them for easy access and also a large sandpit

This bespoke piece of residential equipment was confirmed this week for a client near Bournemouth. 2 x Towers with linked bridge, easy access ramp and slide.  The client wanted a Castle Theme and I think we’ve cracked it!

The sun finally showed it’s face for the epic installation.  The Discovery Play Ship has 3 huge decks, 2 x slides, 2 x scramble nets, crawl tunnel, loads of play value and all finished on luxurious artificial grass and blue wet-pour.  A truly wonderful piece of equipment that the whole of Nelson Primary School can use!

Outdoorclassroom Timber

The outdoor canopy at Foxmoor Primary School was completed this week.  The wind really hampered this build but we got there in the end!  We built in some seating, storage and chalkboards.  They now have brand new learning space to be used all year round!

Toddler Towers with Slide

Toddler Towers now installed and looking great on the bark surface.  It was a tight fit but we made it work.  

The pub were over the moon as they can now offer a fun and safe play for kids to play while the parents enjoy a nice pint!

Outdoor Classroom Discovery


The sun shone as we finished this beautiful Music Room for a Primary School in Gloucestershire.  

It has now been fitted with energy efficient lighting, wall sockets, carpet and fresh coat of white paint.  It just needs a couple of drum kits!

It now gives the school another useful and much needed space for  music lessons.

This exciting proposal has just been sent back to a client in Oxfordshire and fingers crossed the committee vote for it in their next meeting which is due to take place mid-January.

Music Room Drop Off



It’s a pretty grim start to the day but it’s dry and we can get cracking on this Music Room for Foxmoor Primary School!

Ali visited The Carpenters Arms pub which is just a stones throw from our head office.  Recently re-opened, they require some new play equipment.  It’s a sloped play area but that doesn’t stop us coming up with one of popular play towers which would fit nicely in the corner.  Install due to take place in earlier January!

Cam Everlands Plan Discovery

 

Another site visit saw Ali meet with Cam Everlands Primary School in Gloucestershire.  They had an old play area with a few pieces of old, rotten equipment that need to be removed and disposed of.  We gained as much information as we could and came up with this bespoke design which gives incredible play value, with loads of accessories.  Hopefully we get to work with them in earlier 2020.
