Outdoor play areas
There is a large multi ability play area adjacent to Sports Café terrace and it has a path at the entrances/exits. The rest of the area is made up of soft pour tarmac and surfaced in bark chippings.
The play area has multiple different pieces of equipment with an ability-led play approach, where children are free to choose activities based on their own abilities, confidence, and comfort level, rather than being restricted by age, size, or traditional “skill-level” classifications. In a large play area with multiple types of equipment, this approach encourages inclusivity, independence, and confidence-building.
Equipment is mainly ‘log style’ and may include low-level and high-level climbing, balancing beams, soft-surface areas, spinning elements, and more. This area is on bark.
There is a soft pour tarmac pathway allowing access to an accessible roundabout, a castle play tower with draw bridge style ramp and low-level trampoline with one step up/down to access.
There is another soft pour tarmac area with smaller equipment, swings, elements and a nest swing.
There is some bench seating in this area. These play areas can be accessed via Sports Café terrace, from the Sports Plaza through a set of double doors and from the outside areas.
