Transforming Outdoor Learning with Maths Playground Games and Markings
At UniPlay, we believe that learning doesnโt stop at the classroom door. Thatโs why we specialise in transforming ordinary playgrounds into vibrant, interactive learning environmentsโstarting with maths. Our bespoke maths playground markings are designed not only to make outdoor spaces more engaging but also to support the curriculum through active, hands-on learning.
Why Choose a Maths Playground from UniPlay?
A maths playground is more than just a play spaceโit’s an opportunity to reinforce numeracy skills in a way thatโs fun, inclusive, and memorable. By integrating bright, purpose-designed markings into your playground, we help schools and nurseries bring maths to life.
Whether it’s encouraging counting during break time or teaching time on a giant thermoplastic clock, our playground maths solutions give pupils the tools to explore numbers, shapes, and logic in a whole new way.
Our Approach to Educational Playground Design
Every school is different, and at UniPlay, we pride ourselves on creating tailored solutions that reflect your unique vision and learning goals. Our maths playground markings are made using long-lasting, eco-friendly thermoplastic and designed in collaboration with educators to ensure they align with key maths objectives.
From concept to installation, we work closely with your team to create a maths playground thatโs as visually exciting as it is educational.
