With 2023 quickly approaching, many of the schools we work with are asking for the most modern and creative markings for their next project. To help you design your playground markings in 2023, we have rounded up some of our top picks for school playground markings for the next year…
Traditional Playground Games
Traditional games such as a hopscotch, Mr wolf, number games and number grids still prove to be our most popular and sought-after designs. Children of all ages love to play alone or in groups using traditional games, our team design these to be engaging and eye-catching using bright colours and modern designs.
Mile Tracks and Trails
Mile tracks and trails are ideal for bringing your playground together and provide an opportunity for pupils to take part in mile challenges and increase their physical activity levels. We have worked with many schools and created bespoke mile tracks with their own ethos and school branding integrated throughout.
Board Game Markings
Snakes and Ladders – Playground Markings
Board games are not only fun, but they also bring a dramatic change to an otherwise dull playground. The vibrant colours and large-scale designs help increase interaction and improve social skills. Playground board game markings are perfect for any level of education from nurseries to primary schools and young person’s clubs.
Thermoplastic playground board games help children learn and play outside the classroom. These games help improve social interaction skills and analytical thinking. Uniplay offers a variety of board game options that can be adapted to suit your school’s requirements such as; Snakes and Ladders, Ludo, and Chess.
Wellbeing and Emotion Markings
Becoming increasingly popular, we have created markings which help pupils to understand their daily thoughts and feelings. We work alongside team members to create thought bubbles and trees to help children understand how they are feeling and how to deal with changing emotions.
Educational School Markings
Finally, educational markings are the favourite amongst teaching staff. Helping to support children’s development and continued learning outside the classroom, our creative team can design markings for any project including maths, English, geography, history and much more. Whatever your requirements, our creative team can help you to bring your ideas to life.
Thermoplastic Road Markings
Thermoplastic road markings are great for schools when introducing road safety. These thermoplastic road markings include, junction markings, school signs, car park markings, road arrows, speed roundels and more. All these thermoplastic road markings give the best results when guiding children across the road.
All of our graphics are produced in non toxic, anti slip thermoplastic material and cut by water-jet for a really intricate finish. If there is something in particular you don’t see in our playground markings brochure, our design team can produce custom games for your consideration.
Our bespoke school markings, also includes, if you wish to change playground markings to a different colour, improve primary motivation by linking the thermoplastic playground markings to your school values, or install your school logos, all these are a great way to improve your thermoplastic playground.
