As well as more regular tyres, we have added 2 tractor tyres to the field. Chalk, small world toys and dressing up clothes will also feature from next week.. oh and not forgetting the comfy rugs for those wanting a quieter playtime 🍃

I thought it was just a tall stack of tyres.. then out popped a head! 😂 Monkton Park Play #opalschools

Such a fab turn out from the school community Monkton Park School Monkton Park Play. Thank you all for the great donations for play - it was lovely to chat to so many of you on the field. Well done to the school team for a fun, family event 👏 #opalschools #community Outdoor Play and Learning (OPAL) CIC

We did it! Platinum!

We are absolutely delighted to have received an Opal PLATINUM Award. We are now one of the top schools for play in the country and we could not be any more proud of our inclusive, fun play culture 😁 The children are ecstatic about it and rightly so! Monkton Park School #opalschools

“Grandpa Janice” and “Grandpa Joe” having a wheelchair race apparently 👴🏼 Grandpa Joe told me he was 3 billion years old!

We have a VERY exciting addition to the school field.. our playtimes have been officially upgraded once again! What do you think it is!? 🏖 A huge thanks to the talented parents who brought our vision to life 👏🏼Outdoor Play and Learning (OPAL) CIC Rachel Murray Monkton Park School #opalschools
