Alma Primary has unveiled a brand new playground which was built over the summer holiday! The first day back in September was a very exciting time for our children and families as they saw the new playground for the first time. Children are having more fun, exploring, getting messy and enjoying themselves as children should. Playtime has been significantly improved and staff have observed noticeably better behaviour at playtimes. The first phase of this new playground includes a reading nook, plant beds, a huge sandpit, an outdoor classroom providing shelter and shade, and a climbing hill and tunnel with ladder and raised platform as well as acrobatic bars surrounded by softer mulch flooring. On the other side of the playground we now have sports markings for PE including a football pitch, netball pitch and running track as well as balancing beams which double up as safety barrier for D&D. We are so pleased with how happy our children are at playtime!
