"That's got to be the best Pirate Ship I've ever seen....Savvy!?'

Water cannons, rope bridges, slides and a Pirate Ship to captain!

Some are already calling it… The Eighth Wonder of the World! 🏗️

Skateboard ramps, climbing walls, a Padel court, 5-a-side and basketball space, Scramble Stax, chill-out gazebos, table tennis—and more—all brought together around an incredible central quad.

It really does have it all!

A huge thank you to S&C Slatter for the opportunity for Playscheme to be part of this fantastic project Queen Ethelburga's Collegiate.

And a big thanks to the brilliant team at Playscheme, and especially Sam Walker, for the exceptional design—what a joy to see it all come to life!

We're absolutely thrilled with how it's all come together.
