Play Force | Mansfield State School Playground Transformation

Project Overview:
The Mansfield State School playground underwent a complete transformation thanks to the expertise of Play Force. Initially found in a dire state—weathered surfaces, broken equipment, and a generally unsafe environment—the playground seemed destined for demolition. However, Play Force's innovative approach, presented at the Business Managers Conference, convinced us to revive this essential play space.

Transformation Highlights:
Initial State: A playground barely recognisable as a place for play, with safety and aesthetics compromised.
Revitalisation Strategy: Comprehensive refurbishment, focusing on safety, durability, and visual appeal.
Execution: Replacement of the damaged infrastructure with high-quality materials, ensuring longevity and safety. Introduction of vibrant colours and new play equipment to reinvigorate the space.
Impact: A cost-effective makeover that transformed a dilapidated area into a dynamic, safe, and inviting playground for children to explore, learn, and grow.

Key Achievements:
Conducted thorough inspections and surface impact tests, ensuring all play areas met safety standards.
Engaged with the community to select the most beneficial upgrades.
Completed essential maintenance and compliance work across all playground zones.
Rejuvenated the playground with rust treatment, new paint, and synthetic grass, enhancing both safety and aesthetics.

The outcome for the Community:
Today, the children of Mansfield State School enjoy a bright, engaging playground that fuels their imagination and encourages active play. This project not only revitalised a physical space but also reinforced the importance of play in child development and community well-being.
