School Projects
Spring Farm Public School
Spring Farm Public School consisted of 5 separate play areas. These covered a mini Fitcore Extreme circuit with CSBR Rubber Pads and an outdoor Rhapsody Music area with Synthetic Grass. A Sensory play Panel zone was also included, and then a general play area. This consisted of a Cozy Dome, Block Climber and Fly Wheel with CSBR Rubber.
Evans High School
This high school located in Blacktown needed shade, shade, shade! We provided for them a bus shelter, a smaller picnic shelter with a concrete slab and a huge double Hip Roof Shade Structure. Now they have plenty of places to shelter from the sun!
Tregear Public School
Two areas were covered at Tregear Public School. First was a fitness circuit consisting of their pick of the Fitcore Extreme range that suited their school. Along with a Hemisphere Climber and Drop Shot Towers. An additional area featured the Playsense 301. All were finished off with CSBR Pre Colour Rubber Surfacing.
Bishop Tyrrell Anglican College
An unused hill side was transformed into an outdoor fitness circuit using the Fitcore Extreme range. This was finished off with a plush 30mm thick Summer Prestige Synthetic Grass Surfacing. Installing along a concrete pathway added to the challenge of the circuit. Once complete, the kids then run back up the hill to start the circuit over again.
Jasper Road Public School
The special needs unit of this school needed a huge transformation to replace its outdated equipment. With the use of a bright EPDM surface, a bike track was created. This leads the children on a path of discovery to lots of inclusive and sensory based equipment.
Redhead Public School
An old dilapidated playground removed to make way for a Playsense 301 and Cozy Dome. The pre configured Playsense range was ideal for the school’s project. It fitted in the existing space they had and providing lots of climbers and sliding activities.
Kings Langley Public School
Kings Langley wanted to add some feature items to an existing bark area, that provided some challenging climbing activities. A Cozy Dome, GeoPlex Climber and Peg Bridge were added to the play space.
Quakers Hill Public School
Quakers Hill Public School had an unused wall area in their main school yard that was transformed into a sensory play wall. With the introduction of some bright, colourful Playshaper Panels, this unused space now serves a purpose.
Sadleir Public School
Two blank boring walls in the special needs unit of this school needed a splash of colour! This was achieved with a series of Playshaper Sensory panels. This not only provide some much needed colour, but provide some very important sensory pieces to the yard.

Child Care Centres

Werrianda CCC - Werrington Downs
Despite their sandpit having beautiful trees surrounding it, shade over the area needed to be enhanced. The installation of a Hypar Sail Shade structure provided the additional shade required, but the sail option gave a soft finish that complemented the area.
Gumbirra Pre School - St Clair
Gumbirra Pre School – A small play space required shade however, posts from a standard type of structure would have created too many obstructions in the area. A custom fixed corner arm umbrella was installed to provide the shade needed but the added benefit of a single post structure meant no unnecessary posts intruded the area.
Shopping Centres
Greenway Plaza - Wetherill Park
Greenway Plaza is a bustling local centre filled with lots of food outlets, fashion stores and gyms. Many patrons spend hours and an outdoor play area was desperately needed but space was limited. Our Alpha Tower was the impact feature that fit that the bill perfectly!
