Signhills Academy

Signhills Academy embarked on an ambitious project to enhance its outdoor play areas and encourage students to engage in more outdoor physical education with a touch of play. Now, teachers can take P.E. lessons outdoors, thanks to newly installed, high-quality fitness equipment. Situated in an active community, Signhills Academy values the significance of outdoor play in fostering both physical and mental development in children.

It was crucial that the surfaces met several key criteria. Firstly, they needed to be durable enough to endure the high levels of foot traffic and wear and tear from daily use by energetic children. This meant the material had to be resilient and long-lasting, capable of withstanding all types of weather conditions throughout the year.

Additionally, the installation process had to be meticulously planned and executed to ensure that it was completed efficiently, minimising disruption to the school's schedule and activities. Adhering to the project timeline and budget was also a critical factor, as any delays or cost overruns could have impacted the school's ability to fully utilise the new facilities as planned. Playrite’s Nearlygrass 30 was selected to address these needs, providing a reliable, cost-effective solution that met all these requirements.

Ken Smith, Area Sales Manager from Playrite, remarked, "Nearlygrass 30 is perfect for educational institutions like Signhills Academy. It guarantees a reliable, year-round surface that’s both safe and cost-effective, eliminating the heavy upkeep that natural grass demands."

Ashley Spink from Newby Leisure shared, "Transforming Signhills Academy’s playground was an exciting project. The new play area, with Nearlygrass 30, offers a variety of activities for the children, from physical play to creative exploration, all within a low-maintenance setting."

The students of Signhills Academy are now enjoying their outdoor physical education lessons more than ever. With the use of Playrite’s Nearlygrass 30, the academy benefits from a low-maintenance, all-weather surface that supports diverse play activities, ensuring students can enjoy safe and enjoyable outdoor play throughout the year. Adding a bed of artificial grass, adhered to a rubber base, and surrounded by bespoke timber fencing for safeguarding, this is the perfectly enclosed addition to the playground.
