MAKING LUNCHTIME PLAY CREATIVE & FUN - OPAL PROJECT at St. Bernard's21 November 2025 (by admin) |
Can you help us? We have OPAL PLAYGROUND PROJECT on the BUSY HORIZON...
We’re excited to be embracing the OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning) approach to transform lunchtimes into a time of creativity, fun, and active play for every child. OPAL encourages children to explore, invent, and collaborate using open-ended play opportunities—and that’s where you come in!
To make this vision a reality, we need loose parts and play equipment that spark imagination. Items like:
- Clean plastic crates or tubs
- Buckets, spades, and gardening tools
- Old pots, pans, and kitchen utensils
- Large cardboard boxes
- Fabric pieces, tarpaulins, or old curtains
- Small wooden planks or cable reels
- Pieces of guttering
Your donations will help create a rich play environment where children can build, role-play, and discover new ways to enjoy their lunchtime.
How to donate:
Simply drop items at the school office or contact us if you have something larger to offer. Every contribution makes a difference!
Thank you for supporting OPAL and helping us give children the freedom to play, learn, and thrive.
