A huge thank you to everyone who has supported the New Struan Playground - you have helped raise £145,437.  The new design introduces zoned areas as knowing a particular type of play is undertaken in a specificed area can enhance a pupil's play exprience and reduce anxiety.

Some of the improvements have started already.  This is the fort which is a favourite for a lot of the pupils.  We've also got a new swing basket, outdoor musical instruments and outdoor gym equipment, which is proving very popular.

Last year the pupils gathered photographs and images of the items and equipment they would like in the new playground.  Their involvement did not stop there, as some pupils have helped with aspects of the development.  Ben and Jason helped build the Willow Arbour which surrounds the storytelling corner.

The final item to be installed is a Multi-use games area which will be used for team games like football and basketball.  As this is a big piece of equipment this will be installed during the summer holidays in 2016.
