6-Metre Bespoke Embankment Slide & Natural Climbing Access
Overview
As part of their dedicated commitment to the OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning) programme, Lawrence View Primary School sought to supercharge their outdoor provision with a high-impact physical challenge. They identified a steep, underutilised embankment as the perfect site for a landmark feature. Having successfully partnered with us on previous projects, the school invited us back to transform this grassy slope into a thrilling 6-metre embankment slide – proving that with the right architectural approach, even the simplest landscape features can become a star attraction.
“The embankment slide has been a fantastic addition to our playground. The children absolutely love it—it’s a definitive highlight of their playtimes. Precision Timber helped us turn an ambitious idea into a stunning, functional reality!”
