Haberdashers Askes Knights Academy add Multiple Canopies

It is not every day of the week we supply three completely different products from our range to the same school but in this case we had the breadth of products that suited the Academy.

Products – Maxima Tepee, Maxima StarSail and Motiva Linear

Requirement – When you’re in demand, you’re in demand.

It’s not every day that we supply three different products to the same school but when Haberdashers Askes Knights Academy came knocking they were smitten.

With the need for canopies for school playgrounds high on their agenda we were able to provide solutions for social, dining and covered zones that complemented each other and have since proven to be invaluable spaces.

Like their students, Haberdashers Askes Knights Academy value variety and creativity, which meant that rather than choosing the same design throughout, they opted for a range of different styles that work together beautifully on campus.

Solution – Combining a Maxima Tepee, Maxima Fabric Sail structure and Motiva Linear we created different zones.

A social seating area, giving the students a place to relax, sit down and spend some time together outside of classes; a dining zone, providing an additional space to eat and socialise outside the school; And a multi-purpose covered area, used in a variety of ways and giving additional outdoor space. The addition of side panels stops the wind driving through, meaning it is a relaxing and comfortable space whatever the weather.

Result – Utilising the outdoors is so important for schools and if you have a large outdoor area that you’d like students to spend time in more often then it’s important to provide variety and offer spaces with different roles, mimicking the internal zones of the school but in an outdoor setting.

Find Out More – Outdoor playground canopies for schools are not just about providing shelter, they offer different types of space for different uses. Whether it is a social, dining or learning zone we have options that lend themselves to each.
