Overview
We will showcase how the development of a Playground Masterplan to engage students reduced playground incidents. Instead of waiting for the problem to happen, we created a space where all students can connect or find a place where they belong. It is not just about more sporting equipment.
Providing small, simple spaces can create more options for all students. St Mary's has a small playground space and like most schools, not a great deal of spare money. Come along and here the inspiration around this project.
