The team that came to install the equipment were fantastic. They even had the courtesy to remove their shoes when they came in to use the facilities. Although this seems trivial, it was very much appreciated by the caretaker and cleaners. Thank you.
Laura McGee - Ysgol Penycae, Wrexham
Very pleased with the whole process.
Lynn Taylor - Broadfield primary School, Hertfordshire
Very happy with our outdoor classroom and play area. High quality, will definitely use again for other improvements.
Linda Farrall - St Bernadette's Preschool, Blackpool
I must say, the service from Pentagon was fantastic and their knowledge of EYFS was important when helping us to develop our new area. What was once a muddy and underused space, is now an attractive free flow environment with plenty of resources for play and learning
Chantal Lancashire - St Teresa's Catholic primary School, Bristol
The children love it and we've even set up a gardening club tasked with developing the area further and maintaining it. We'd like to thank Pentagon for installing this fantastic addition to our playground and for providing oxygenated plants and fish for the pond. The next steps for the gardening club, is to plant vegetables in one corner and a 'minibeast' hotel in the other
Jeremy Hughes - West Town lane Academy, Bristol
With the lottery and PTA funding, we were lucky enough to get Pentagon who have really helped us positively transform our EYFS outdoor provision. It’s a well thought out space which is accessible all year round. It covers the 3 prime and 4 specific areas of learning and encourages child initiated play and learning…we are very pleased and will be happy to recommend and refer you
Clare South - Long Marston VA C of E Primary School, London
We are delighted with our new outdoor lab. It has exceeded our expectations and we are devising new opportunities for outdoor learning every week
Diane Hunt - Heage Primary School, Derbyshire
It has transformed our Early Years Area. I will be inviting other local schools to see our fantastic development.
Louise Parker - Park Primary School, Wirral
We’re really, really happy with the structure. It’s really helping with 'moving and handling' in regards to our curriculum. It also separates areas for children to learn in as well so we’ve got little caves where children can do weaving or they can do writing at the top as well. We find the children are also really responsible with it as well. The thing that’s really nice about it, is the fact it doesn’t overpower our playground, so the children still choose other learning as well as the Tree House which is really great for us as we can build our learning around it. It is very sympathetic to the surroundings
Mr Arnold - St Peter's Primary School, Bristol
The children just LOVE it now, we are finding it hard for them to want to come inside!’ ‘The bespoke castle is such a hit with all the children, even the youngest children can find a way up onto the top platforms...we keep them off the more challenging bits as they can grow into using these once they get older.
The whole space has just encouraged the staff to be creative and think about how they can plan a lesson around using X outside…we have spent a lot of time setting up a ‘welcome to your new area’ for children who are starting with us and new to the area, this really helps us with our baseline assessments
