"Steve and Joe have been an absolute joy to have here at school.The children love them and they have been so kind and accommodating in answering all questions - especially from our nursery class (who have been glued to the nursery window watching the build and make their own mini castles)"

Chloe was fantastic at planning an area that met the ideas of the children, whom she talked to in-depth, and made the most of the space, whilst providing value for money. It was made a simple and easy process with very little needed on our part. The installation team were great. They were professional, accommodating and amenable. They worked hard to install the area to a very high specification. They liaised with myself throughout to ensure we were satisfied with the work being undertaken and we were given the opportunity to make any changes along the way. The aftercare was also super with Chloe contacting us to discuss the work undertaken and if she could be of any further assistance. She even visited the school to observe the area personally. We are extremely pleased with the area and the process from start to finish. The feedback from children, staff, parents/carers and visitors has been extremely positive. So a huge thank you to Chloe and the Pentagon team for all their hard work and assistance. It has made a huge difference to our outdoor area.

We are so happy and are absolutely over the moon with it. We can’t fault it, it’s just absolutely amazing! The quality is just brilliant. Like when the installers installed it, we were so impressed with how they did it.
Lorraine Brewer – St Ambrose Primary School, Worcestershire
All of the children are very excited and engaged. The climber and new active zone is very popular. I also believe the playhouse is very popular with lots of children wanting to play in there and use the stage. Now, every child can transition between each piece of equipment and have a go at learning in different ways and explore something they wouldn’t have done before.
Mark – Ad Astra Infant School, Dorset
The children are keen and excited to go outside, they play imaginatively in the mud kitchen area, they love climbing, jumping and creating obstacle courses with the large blocks - and it’s super to see them developing their balance and core strength and exploring different ways to move and jump, which all helps with developing their gross motor skills for things like writing. They also have to challenge themselves to both analyse and to take risks. They love the climbing wall and again this builds muscle strength and is important for developing their fine and gross motor ability. The artificial grass has completely changed the appearance of the area and it means the outdoor area looks more tidy and with more appealing. It makes the whole area an outdoor space that reflects our approach to outdoor learning at BCS - it is welcoming yet still natural. The different areas are clearly defined encouraging independence and they support learning across the Early Years curriculum
Kay Smith – Bournemouth Collegiate Preparatory School, Dorset
Pupils from Reception to Year 6 love the trim trail. It is so popular during playtimes but is also a lovely activity to include as part of their term LG Learning Outside the Classroom week and their Forest School Days. The children are developing balance, co-ordination, problem solving, risk analysis, turn taking and enjoying being outside on fabulous equipment. They love it and we look forward to being add further equipment in the future.

I am new to the nursery school and we needed to update the equipment that was here. After attending a bursars meeting and getting pentagon play out for a quote, you gave us the best service in respect of what we wanted and how we were going to get it installed. You were just great customer service. You were always keeping us posted, especially during Covid-19, about how we were going to get it installed. The teams that came out and did it were excellent and we couldn’t have asked them to do anything more. We were lucky we didn’t have any children in the nursery at the time which meant that it got done quicker. What it’s done for here is its given the children a new area and new garden so that they can make friends and socialise. Its really developing their gross motor skills, it is just looking fantastic and all of the parents are very jealous that they haven’t been able to come and use it and we’ve had lots of good, positive feedback on our social media page as we were monitoring how things were developing over the time and for our 2 year old area, it has just transformed their outside space because they now have got a purpose space for them. Which is got the multiple surfaces, it has enabled the to do anything and were still in the early days of them using it.

"I'm very happy with the climbing frame and can't wait to see the children playing on it, it's a very welcome addition to our playground. Your team were very professional and a pleasure to have on-site, and we'd definitely use your company again in the future."
Katie Thornton, Greenacres Primary Academy
Fantastic service, from the ordering to the installation. They couldn't have made it any easier, especially during these difficult time. Installation guys were so helpful and did a brilliant job. Would definitely use again.

I would recommend Pentagon to other schools.
