A well-designed playground is essential to children’s learning and development and should create opportunities for play, exercise, social interaction, passive play, and interaction with natural elements.
A child’s learning experience should reach beyond the confines of the classroom to outdoor learning areas where natural elements are blended with play structures, obstacles, and a variety of surfaces, creating a balanced and functional playground that beautifies the school grounds.
Betterland’s designs focus on upgrading the quality and function of children’s learning environments while conforming to the Australian Standards for Playgrounds AS 4685 (playground and surfacing) and AS 4422 (playground surfacing specifications, requirements, and test methods), as well as the Department for Education, Outdoor learning environments standards for schools and preschools.
