Shade Sails get personal
Thursday, August 12th, 2010Ambleside Primary Vote for Shade Sails!
Thursday, April 15th, 2010
Just as important as the General Election, Ambleside Primary School’s Shade Sail election!
Ambleside Primary School’s children voted for their favourite design and colours for the Shade Sails being installed into their Nottingham playground. The children all coloured in blank Shade Sail design sheets to get involved and put their own stamp on their playground. The final design voted by the children was by ‘DJ Rice and Famous’ and stage one of the installation is now happening.
‘It’s been a good experience and it’s fun to choose ourselves what goes up around the school’ – DJ Rice and Famous of Ambleside Primary School, Nottingham.

Think outside the classroom!
Thursday, April 1st, 2010
At Safe Shade we believe the design of an outdoor space is just as important as the inside. Unfortunately playgrounds are often over looked when it comes to upgrading or even the design of a new school. Having the right equipment in place is key in order to transform the outdoor environment into a more practical, usable space.
Very soon (fingers crossed) the nicer weather will be here, let’s make the most of it! Think of as many activities/lessons as you can that can be enjoyed outside the classroom. It adds more to the experience, especially after we’ve all been couped up inside for so long! And, who cares if it’s raining, with weatherproof Shade Sails for shelter! Enjoy the outdoors!
Thank you Ambleside Primary!

A very big ‘THANK YOU!’ to Mrs Hannon and her academy group at Ambleside Primary School, Nottingham. For the last 6 weeks Safe Shade have been extremely lucky enough to be involved with the academy group’s assignment to find suitable outdoor shade for 2 areas in their school playground. The children (aged between 9 and 11) were involved with every aspect of the decision making process; from choosing the best quotation and getting involved with the design process and colours, to writing a letter to the school’s Governors and doing a Shade Sail presentation! The children were all fantastic and a pleasure to work with! Thank you for choosing Safe Shade and letting us be involved with this very exciting project. We look forward to posting all the children’s artwork and feedback, and of course to installing your new Shade Sails!!
