Llandysul School, Dyfed is the biggest ever building commissioned by Ceredigion County Council. It is classed as a ‘super’ school for 3-19 year olds in Wales.Shelter we designed for Llandysul School

The new school merges five schools – Ysgol Dyffryn Teifi, Aberbanc, Coedybryn, Llandysul, and Pontsian – to form the county’s second ‘all-through’ school.

The build, completed for the 2016/17 academic year, involves the construction of a new two-storey 11,200m2 facility to accommodate 1,000 primary and secondary school pupils.

A&S Landscape has been involved in this large project with the supply and install of a selection of Motiva Linear canopies. Metalwork finished in Grey RAL 7000 with a multicoloured canopy roof consisting of Daffodil, Foxglove, Lagoon, Mandarin and Poppy to create a multicoloured rainbow effect.

We’ve also created a multicoloured polycarbonate roof dining area shelter at Ark Aryton Primary School.

Why schools should prioritise playground safety during break times and how the steps they can take to do so

It’s predicted that in the UK alone, around 40,000 children suffer from playground accidents. Plenty of these even end up in the hospital or A&E, making it critical that schools do everything they can to carry out proper playground safety. UK schools across the country struggle with making their playgrounds as safe as possible – fortunately, a lot of these accidents can be avoided with careful supervision.

By following safety guidelines and testing surfaces and equipment, you can do a lot to prevent future accidents that your pupils may have – making it an environment that can be safe and fun to play around in with reduced hazards.
