AFS installs new sustainable playground at North Cornwall Academy
We're thrilled to share the fantastic work our team completed this week at North Cornwall Academy in Bodmin, which is part of the Wave Multi Academy Trust! It's always a privilege to contribute to the learning and development environment of young students.
We installed a wonderful playground designed for maximum fun and minimum environmental impact.
The new installation includes:
A slide for speedy descents
Climbing ramps to encourage motor skills and resilience
Fun stepping stones for balance and coordination practice
The best part? Every single element of the play structure is made from recycled composite plastic! This eco-friendly material is not only sustainable but also exceptionally durable, rot-proof, splinter-free, and requires minimal maintenance - a win for the school and the planet!
To ensure a safe and stimulating play environment, we also installed a new rubber mulch surface. This impact-absorbing surface provides a soft landing and excellent drainage, keeping the playground usable and safe throughout the year, whatever the weather.
At Academic Facilities Services, we believe that outdoor play is crucial for physical health, social development and creativity. We are incredibly proud of the work we've done and hope the students at North Cornwall Academy enjoy their brilliant new playground for years to come!
