The proposed plan would be to have playground games painted onto the tarmac in the playground such as Hop scotch, darts, target throwing, dance, duck duck goose, number lines and squares and Chess. help with gross motor skills through a radical method supporting all.

This would encourage literacy and numerousy learning through a fun and engaging way which would meet the needs of all children and support attainment.

We would also look to use some of the funds for play and sport equipment for the playground such as balls, parachutes, hula hoops among other games.

This would also support the health and wellbeing of our children when playing games and working together. This would be a radical way of encouraging creativity, imagination, social inclusion (sharing, working together), leadership skills developed through play. 

Springside is a very deprived area and we want what is best for our children, this grant would break a financial barrier and would give the children equal opportunities to develop their skills further outwith the classroom.
