Help Please - Opinions On Climbing Equipment For Outdoors

[Guest]

Hi everyone.

I am an F1 teacher in a school based Nursery class. The Head has agreed to a new peice of play equipment to go outside to focus on climbing skills etc. I have seen a peice of equipment that looks like a barrel sawn in half which the children use ropes etc to climb over, but I can't find it! Has anyone got any equipment that works really well, or have you seen anything similar? Would really appreciate your views. Thanks in advance.

Hi, check out the abcdoes blog it recommends an outdoor play equipment company called Infinate Edge, the apparatus looks amazing and with your budget worth a look.

This one is really nice - http://www.timberline.co.uk/productview/rope-and-rockwall-mirror-unit/ if you havent got much space or 'littlies'.

 

abcdoes also had a post about fixing climbing wall grips on trees and walls already in place as a cheaper alternative http://abcdoes.typepad.com/abc-does-a-blog/2012/04/outdoor-makeover-on-a-budget.html

Timberline have gone out of business not sure who have taken them over. We have just worked with a local tree surgeon and he has installed a rope traverse and a rickety bridge for us
