Playing and learning at the same time

The bow can not be bent all the time. An old Dutch saying and still verry true. Children at school can learn better when there are also moments to relax. Playing in the playground also gives a good opportunity to exercise and deepen the social and emotional development of children. During the playing they also exercise and use their sense of muscular movement, they learn to play with other kids and become friends in their own age group.

At the nursery of Sapana School and at the pré school (1 to 6 years) there are play grounds in and outside the building. The play grounds outside the building for the Nursery, Pré school 1, Pré school 2 and for Grade 1 (age 6) are situated next to the group rooms. A common playground for the remaining grades is planned for general use of the school.

What do we need?

Amongst other things: instruments to move with like swings and seesaws; instruments to climb and dangle on; a safe floor to prevent injuries when falling; sand-pits to make forms and to dig in.

All instruments will be made by local carpenters.

Costs: € 2.000,- = $ 2.740 (USdollars)
