Products (quiet)

To provide enriching learning experiences in situations away from the formal school environment is the long term aim of the Government’s new Manifesto for Learning Outside the Classroom. Quite area products designed and installed by Primary Landscapes enable young minds to develop the capacity to learn and provide the framework for gentle social interaction, reading, studying and quiet reflection.

Canopies

With outside curricular activities one has to be mindful of over exposure to the sun and what to do when cooped up inside the classroom with frustrated pupils when it's raining.

We provide a range of canopies from detachable canvas sails for shading specific areas i.e. sandpits or study areas, to rigid cantilevered structures fixed to an appropriate part of your building offering a dry out side facility for play or curricular activities.

Willow tunnels

The most natural of play forms, meeting curricular guidelines by inspiring, investigation, exploration, role play, shading and introducing young minds to plant growth and characteristic recognition.

We advise you on your grounds suitability for Willow growth and, if possible, will incorporate the planting of a willow form within the overall design.

We can offer a maintenance programme for the willow, to ensure future healthy growing is established and reduce accident risk.

Landscaped seating

There will not be many schools with grounds that can't incorporate a landscaped seating area, a "rolling down" bank or an amphitheatre.

With the majority of our installations top-soil and sub-soil is excavated and we endeavour for every project to be skip-free, saving on landfill and your carbon footprint, so, this may mean you end up with a Scafell, Snowden or Ben Nevis in your grounds!

We look to sensitively and imaginatively create soft landscape features where possible within the design framework.

Sensory Pathways

For what could be an all tarmac path we look to engage the senses by including all sorts of different objects and materials, differing in colour and shape within the pathway to stir curiosity, touch and smell, sub consciously activating the brain even when going from A to B.

Totem poles

A tactile feature carved from wood, that sensitively placed will spark the imagination and draw people in as a point of interest. The design can be as unique as you wish. Included with the appropriate seating this can be a truly beneficial aspect to a quiet area or as a feature on its own in any of the three separate areas we identify as part of a school grounds development.
