Classroom and Playground Storage from Pentagon Play
From primary schools to secondary schools, classroom storage is an important part of any school. Whether you are looking for indoor classroom storage or an outdoor store for your resources, we have a range of school storage units available for you!
Pentagon Play has now expanded its school storage range with brand new outdoor storage and an Early Years Indoor Furniture Range. See our whole new range of clever seating and storage solutions for your school…
Stack and Sit Packages
Pentagon Play has designed the perfect school storage and classroom storage units with our Seating and Storage range for your indoor classrooms. With different Stack and Sit Packages to choose from, your classroom can be transformed into the perfect clutter-free environment.
Stack and Sit Package 1
The perfect classroom storage units for any school. The Stack and Sit Package 1 consists of 4 Stack and Sit Stools, which can be stacked on top of each other to free up valuable floor space and to help store valuable classroom items (such as Lego, Small World toys, building blocks, etc.) which can easily be seen through a large clear window, allowing the kids to easily self-select and play.
Each Stool comes already assembled with a cushion either in sage green or grey, which can be removed with ease by the children from the stool lid. They can then use the cushion to kneel or sit on when they commence to play.
Upon removing the cushion, a game will be shown on top of the stool’s lid. The games range from farmlands, and roadways for small-world play to sorting activities where the schoolchildren can sort items of different sizes, shapes, and colours.
If needed the Stools can stack on top of each other to form higher seating options for taller kids or adults.
These Stack and Store Stools are a fantastic addition to any classroom whether they are being used as a seat, storage, or both. Plus, they provide valuable storage solutions for any classroom.
Stack and Sit Package 2
The Stack and Sit Package 2 consists of 2 Stack and Sit Benches which can also be stacked on top of each other to provide a great school storage solution in over cluttered classrooms.
Our Storage Benches are designed to:
- Make play more accessible by helping children to self-select their items of choice through large clear windows on every bench,
- encourage independent play,
- improve interaction, communication, and socialisation
- Stop classrooms being cluttered and provide flexible storage solutions
- Seating for up to 2 kids on one bench
Each Bench has removable cushions and a range of games on the lids like the Stacking Stools. Enabling schoolchildren to kneel and sit on the floor comfortably when playing with the games (roadways and sorting activities.)
The Bench lids can be stacked on top of each other to form higher seating options for taller kids and adults.
Our Benches come in natural Birch plywood and are easily wiped clean (even the cushions!) Making them a wonderfully versatile seating and fantastic classroom storage units. Plus, they arrive fully assembled so you can start using them right away!
Stack and Sit Package 3
The Stack and Sit Package 3 with 2 Stack and Sit Benches and 4 Stack and Sit Stools. Providing the classroom with many different seating and classroom storage scenarios for individual and small group work solutions.
All the Stools and Benches:
- Come with removable cushions
- Have large clear windows for easy access to resources
- Have a range of games on top of each lid

Outdoor Storage Units
Outdoor play is essential in infant and junior schools and where there is outdoor play there are a LOT of play resources and school supplies that need to be contained! Pentagon Play has created two outdoor storage solutions that can help any school's outdoor areas become clutter-free!
Acorn Self-Select Store
Pentagon Play’s Acorn Self-Select Store is a wonderful outdoor storage solution to help outdoor learning and play all year round!
Benefits of the Acorn Self-Select Store
- Crafted from solid outdoor-treated plywood, each store has 3 sturdy shelves to support and stock supplies safely and hold everything you need to store. Each shelf has a safety lip, to ensure minimal risk of storage boxes slipping and causing injuries when children remove the boxes from the shelves.
- Each shelf has a fully cleanable chalkboard strip, enabling kids to label their resources and aiding self-selection for pupils. The top of the store also has a fully cleanable chalkboard strip so that each store can be marked individually for example – Maths Store, PE Store, English Store, etc.
- With 2 central opening doors, they can be hooked securely wide-open for maximum access to all the resources as well as being safe for schoolchildren so that the wind or schoolchildren don’t slam them shut. When closing the doors, they can be bolted and padlocked for extra security.
- Each store also comes with 6 large storage boxes (big enough for A4 books and documents to be stored in them.) Allowing the store to be kept tidy, neatly organised and categorised if needed. It also helps the store to be kept clean and neat for your kids.
Sycamore Self-Select Store
The Sycamore Self-Select Store is the big sister to the newly launched, versatile Acorn Self-Select Store.
A fabulous addition to any outdoor learning and play area looking for bigger storage solution units for their resources.
This store will launch this Spring at Pentagon Play, and is only available as part of larger installation projects.
Benefits of the Sycamore Self-Select Store
- Built from solid outdoor-treated plywood, each store has 4 strong and durable shelves to withstand heavy resources safely, and store everything you need. Like the Acorn Store, all shelves have a safety lip to reduce any injuries to children when self-selecting resources from the store.
- All shelves have a cleanable chalkboard strip, allowing kids to label their resources and promoting self-selection for pupils. Like the Acorn Store, the Sycamore Store has a chalkboard strip on the face of the roof for naming your store. For example – Maths Store, PE Store, English Store, etc.
- Like the Acorn Store, the Sycamore Store has 2 central opening doors, with hooks on them to keep them open wide when in use. They also have bolts on the doors which can be padlocked shut.
