Holy Trinity C of E Primary School
The teachers vision was to have a Performance Area, a Goal End and a Fitness/Adventure Trail with some challenging elements for their KS2 students.
About the Project
Holy Trinity C of E Primary School came to us and expressed their need for us to create an outdoor space that would not only stimulate and challenge their KS2 pupils, but also provide them with opportunities to lead a healthier lifestyle. We were keen to accept this challenge to ensure we made the most of their available space.
The school thought there would be challenge, due to an existing mound. Rather than considering this as a hindrance, we embraced the opportunity to create a unique and engaging play element, by digging out the mound and turning this into a crawl through tunnel as part of the Adventure Trail. By working around the mound we were able to fully optimise the available space and maximise it’s potential, for the pupils to grow their strength, balance and coordination.
To add more variation of physical play, we installed a heavy duty Steel Goal End, comprising of a football goal, basketball hoop and fixed cricket wickets and targets.
Recognising the importance of imaginative play and creative expression, we also installed a stage for role play at the side of the grassed area. This addition allows the pupils to explore their creativity through theatrical performance, storytelling, and collaborative play. The stage serves a space where the children can build their confidence, develop communication skills and foster teamwork.

“After obtaining three quotes for our playground project, we decided to go with Playground Imagineering for the following reasons: I was very impressed with their presentation and proposal as they planned the project with our needs in mind and I felt I was receiving a bespoke service rather than an off the peg solution. As a result the product matches our needs and that of the site perfectly. They were always professional, responsive and when changes were requested, they were dealt with smoothly and without question. I would have no hesitation in recommending Playground Imagineering.”
