THE LINDEN ACADEMY IN LUTON ARTIFICIAL GRASS

artificial grass for The Linden academy in Luton

artificial grass for schools and nurseries

In 2016, The Linden Academy opened the doors to their wonderful newly built school.AGP helped transform 400m2 of their outdoor area into a soft, lush looking greenspace.

The Project

To create a safe and clean outdoor surface that is suitable for the early years students 365 days a year, to assist with the learning and the development of the children.

The Area

A 400m2 space at the new build school that was used as a “dumping ground” for the builders leading to very little grass growth. This combined with the surrounding tarmac meant there was very little safe space for the children to use on a day to day basis.

Completed

With our men on site for little more than a week, our highly skilled installers transformed the Linden Academy’s EYFS area using our ‘Endurance 20’ grass. This project required an excavation of 120mm of soil and backfilling the area with 80mm of MOT (70 tonne) and 30mm of Granite Dust (30 tonne). Our 10mm cushion pad and artificial grass were then lay, secured to our non-rott recycled plastic perimter.

Thanks to AGP Grass, my Reception children are free to enjoy all-weather play and exploration as part of their curriculum. This has had huge impact on the children’s ability to access the outdoors and in turn, has significantly impacted on their development. It also looks fantastic! Gone are the muddy, ‘worn’ patches of grass that we so often see in EYFS playgrounds. Instead, we have bright green landscaping that, from the front aspect of the school, looks amazing. The only problem now is that we want more of it! The installation process was very thorough and I would highly recommend this firm to other schools looking to improve outcomes and enjoyment levels in EYFS.
