Multicoloured Walkway Shelter Designed for St Nicholas C of E Primary School in Somerset

St Nicholas Church of England Primary School in Somerset didn’t just want a covered walkway to allow the children and staff to move freely around the school, they wanted a bright and fun design that would really bring their outside area to life. They contacted the team at A&S Landscape who suggested using coloured polycarbonate in the roof to create a sheltered area that would offer maximum protection from the rain but also look magical when the sun shone through it, casting coloured light onto the ground beneath it. The school were so excited by this idea that they also decided to add a second play area canopy in the same matching colours. The transformation is astonishing, the canopies have really enhanced the school day for the children who marvel at the pretty colours whilst being able to enjoy outside play all year round.

Mount Pleasant Primary School in Huddersfield Add Straight Roof Shelters

Mount Pleasant Primary School in Huddersfield were over the moon with their brand-new state-of-the-art building and really wanted the children to be able to enjoy the grounds come rain or shine. Recognising the need for some outside shelter, they engaged with A&S Landscape who suggested installing two covered walkways that would complement the building whilst also giving the children somewhere to play. This would also allow the teachers to undertake lessons outside and provide some much-needed additional storage space that was protected from the elements. In keeping with the schools modern and fresh new look, they chose the Motiva Linear design in a smart Anthracite Grey. The children and teachers alike were delighted with the canopies, they can now walk between buildings without getting wet and also keep cool in the height of summer.

Red Covered Walkway Shelter Made for Barr View Primary & Nursery Academy in Birmingham

Running between buildings to dodge a rain shower is not much fun. Barr View Primary & Nursery Academy in Birmingham decided that the best way to tackle this was to investigate the feasibility of a covered walkway linking several buildings to ensure maximum shelter. They contacted A&S Landscape who were excited by the brief and proposed an eye-catching and funky wave design that would make the outside of the school look fun and welcoming while also keeping the children dry. The school loved the design and decided to opt for the bright and colourful Traffic Red for the frame with an Opal polycarbonate roof to offer enhanced UV protection.

The King’s School in Macclesfield Add Covered Walkways to Site

A&S Landscape was excited to work with the prestigious The King’s School in Macclesfield to help make further improvements to the excellent campus. As a school that prioritises its students’ needs and daily experience, the staff were keen to solve one issue in particular. When the students had to walk between buildings, they would often be exposed to the elements causing them to arrive at lessons cold and wet. That’s where we came in and installed a pair of Motiva Linear™ straight roof canopies. These shelters are an effective way of creating outdoor covered space which can be used for a multitude of applications. From storage of equipment to use as an outdoor classroom, the shelters will be a real asset to the school for many years to come.

A local school to the A&S Landscape head office, Whitgreave Primary School approached us for a shelter to cover a pathway between buildings.

To match the school’s logo, the steelwork of the structure was finished in a vibrant Traffic Blue, which also added a splash of colour to the area. The Opal polycarbonate used on the roof of the structure will not only allow a safe level of sunlight through but will also provide essential UV ray protection for the pupils.

Covered Walkway Canopy at Booker Park School in Buckinghamshire

Booker Park School embarked on the project to add some shelter to a pathway outside of their early years classroom. This would prevent the young pupils from being exposed to the weather conditions as they lined up to enter the building, as often they would become too wet, cold or hot. The school approached shelter specialists A&S Landscape for a walkway canopy that would last for many years and withstand any harsh weather. We installed our popular Motiva Linear™ product, with Squirrel Grey steelwork and Opal polycarbonate roofing. As the canopy was located near the early years building, post pad protectors were also added to the uprights of the structure. Want to see more?
