A Primary Upgrade

Welcome to Holmbush Primary Academy, where their journey is guided by the fundamental principles of achieving ambitions, working together, delivering excellence, and nurturing potential. Within our nurturing environment, every child and young person can genuinely thrive. Proudly part of the University of Brighton Academies Trust, their mission is to inspire their children and staff to flourish and achieve their best.

In 2023, eibe Play was approached by the school to replace an existing rotten play item that was no longer fit for purpose.

eibe Play carried out a detailed on-site consultation with the school to determine the needs of the school children and to choose the play item that would most benefit the children’s development.

 After consultation with the school and the school children, the Play Unit Manaslu was chosen as the play item to be installed.

The school was drawn to this incredible item's unique play opportunities, including the wobbly bridge, climbing ramp and slide. These play items help promote key development skills such as eye-hand coordination, upper and lower body strength and teamwork. These were very important for the school when choosing this fantastic climbing unit.

Working in partnership with a locally based installer, the Play Unit Manaslu was installed onto a tricky slope within the school playground. A brand-new surface of artificial grass was chosen to go underneath the unit to comply with regulations and to keep the children as safe as possible.

The installation was carried out during the February half-term break and went without a hitch.

The initial feedback from the school is that the children love their new multi-play climbing item and, with the support of eibe Play, will do so for years to come.
