Design a climbing frame for our school

Date: 10th Apr 2020 @ 1:09pm

Hello

We've been contacted by a company called  Timotay Playscapes, who have organised a competition to enable school children to win a brand new climbing frame to the value of £5000, all you have to do is design it!  We need you to combine your creative, mathematical and writing skills to create a dream climbing frame for our playground.  If your design wins Timotay will come to school and install it.  Wouldn’t that be amazing?

There is a pack you can download, which has lots of details to help you with your design.  https://www.timotayplayscapes.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Timotay-Win-a-FREE-climbing-Frame.pdf  It might be a good idea to look around their website for ideas or even look at images of other climbing frames to inspire you.

Success Criteria

- Give rough dimensions of the frame, so the designers know how big it is going to be.

- Use a variety of materials and label each material

- Describe the purpose of each part

- Does your design enable every member of our school the opportunity to use it?

- Describe where it should be installed (for example should it replace the very tired looking trim trail?)

Once you’ve created your design go to this page https://www.timotayplayscapes.co.uk/win/ completed the details and upload your image.

It would be lovely to see some of your designs so upload them to the blog for other children to see.
