Mclays - enabling outdoor environments for schools

Exciting and inspiring play equipment from Mclays is really making a difference in schools’ outdoor learning environments, particularly in the Midlothian region of the country.

Taking the classroom outdoors; enhancing outdoor areas to the maximum and enabling learning environments in the fresh air is becoming increasingly important in schools. Mclays offers free consultation and advice and can design a totally new area or concentrate on transforming a small part of the given space.

Mclays’ recent success in working with schools in the area is aptly demonstrated with Woodburn, Bonnyrigg and Cuiken Primary Schools where attractive, yet challenging, tactile timber fitness trails have been particularly popular.

James Kinch, from Midlothian Council, with whom Mclays worked very closely during these three projects, was delighted with the design, installation and overall service he experienced:
“The introduction of play trails at the three schools was undertaken by Mclays who tendered for the contract of supply and installation of equipment and surfacing through a competitive process and gave the best value.  The work was carried out on time and on budget – as has been the case with previous contracts undertaken by Mclays on our behalf.  Both sales and post-contract services have been excellent to date.”

These Fun ‘n’ Fitness timber trails can be designed to meet particular individual schools’ needs, taking into account the available space on site and using their own selection of features.
