We have recently had a roadway design painted on a courtyard area between two buildings by Groundsplash. The end result, a colourful, motivating roadway design, is both fun and appealing to our Preschool and Junior Primary children providing bike riding opportunities developing gross motor skills and dramatic and creative play. It has also quickly become an invaluable resource for teaching and reinforcing Road Safety rules. Children can role play crossing the road safely in a fun and meaningful manner, therefore supporting our Health and Road Safety Programs. Marion and Colin from Groundsplash were creative and receptive to our needs in their design and were efficient and reliable with meetings and with the final “painting” process. Their willingness to fulfil our needs and friendly manner made business pleasurable.

“Thank you Marion and Colin for bringing the Groundsplash concept to our school.The staff, children and parents think our choices of the grid & three way hopscotch is a great way for the children from Reception to year 7 to learn through playing. The grid has been used for mapping, games learning to go left, right, backwards, forwards, learning numbers and alphabet. The flexibilty of being able to adapt the games like we did with the 3 way hopscotch has enabled us to bring in some many learning areas within one game. It’s great hearing the children during break times talking about putting each other in teams using the colours we put the odd and even numbers in, counting in two’s and other children out with chalk filling in the blank squares choosing different times tables. We also have to thank you for listening to us and adapting the alphabet/number circle as the children are connecting letters to what number they are in the alphabet. I can’t recommend your product enough as I see first hand the various ways classes can incorporate the games into our curriculum and fitness programs but also the children using them in their free play times. Some of the other benefits that we have seen is it encourages language, getting along, problem solving, imagination while keeping their bodies and minds active. Well done Marion and Colin you have opened up so many new ideas for playgrounds with a safe, durable, interactive and colourful product I wish you all the best for your business”.

‘Groundsplash’ have our strong endorsement. We wanted variations in the  normal playground designs and the postive response to our creative ideas has seen original work featured in our school. The frill neck lizard  complements the rainbow snake and the sundial is a link to our “Living Systems”outdoor learning area. The graph allows multipurpose links to activities and our school logo stands out at the main gates”.

“Our new court markings have made a huge difference to playtime and PE lessons at our school. Students are playing traditional games such as snakes and ladders but have also made up their own games. We have also been able to incorporate literacy games into our letter snake and numeracy games into our snakes and ladders board and shapes.”

Principal, Colonel Light Gardens Primary School

” The service and the product provided by Groundsplash is outstanding. Colonel Light Gardens Primary School now has 2 colourful play pieces that are a highlight in the yard with children. New games are being created using the ground templates and great interaction between children is fostered. The installation of the games was undertaken quickly and carefully and the SRC believe it was a great investment for their money”.
