Our Fun time Playground

2023-09-10  •  No comments  •  Woodlands parent council  •  Irvine

The children of Woodlands Primary have taken a vote and decided that they would like to have our markings in the playgound renewed as most have worn away. When speaking with them they have spoken out to wanting more activites that they can do within the sports element, this way it helps keeping them healthy by being active which also helps in the mental well being. 

The kids have asked for Netball court to be painted as well as other amazing educational markings and games that could help with the younger end of the school.

We are still waiting to hear from contractors for the pricing and costs for the paint and labour to make this amazing project possible for the kids at Woodlands Primary
