Scandinavian style playground opened in London
A new Scandinavian playground opened in London on Monday (22/09). It’s the result of a partnership between the Norwegian school in London and the Danish playground company, KOMPAN.
The results are stunning. An environment that mixes freeform elements of adventure play with the geometric shapes of fixed play equipment, Nature play environments with outdoor teaching facilities and PE with free play. If you are a play professional in London or have an interest in outdoor resources in schools this site is a must see.
Bård Vegar Solhjell, the Norwegian Minister of Education, officially opened the play area and during the evening there was music from the Norwegian rock sensation The Commander-in-chief as well as a live chainsaw carving to create the schools story telling throne.
Other events included:
The Norwegian School in London Ltd was established in 1981, and ever since then it has been the natural choice for Norwegian families living in London.
The Norwegian School in London is open to children aged 3 to 16. We are a private school pursuant to Norwegian legislation and an independent school in line with British regulations.
The kindergarten and the main school follow the Norwegian national curriculum, which emphasises the significance of physical activity.
The Norwegian School in London is also characterised by extra tuition in English, but sport and physical expression are also valued highly.
It is therefore important that the school has an excellent play area and an inviting outdoor arena, which should appeal to the entire spectrum of ages from 3 to 16 years old.
