DCM Surfaces brightened up the outdoor play area at St Mark’s CE Primary School with colourful wetpour safety surfacing. The new surface was laid around the timber play equipment and shaped to meet the artificial grass, creating distinct play zones within one connected space.
Fitting the surface around the play equipment
The installation team worked carefully around the posts of the timber climbing frame, laying red wetpour beneath and around it. Curved edges follow the contours of the artificial grass, giving the play zone a clean, integrated finish.
Using colour to define play areas
Bright blue and pale yellow sections add contrast against the green artificial grass, while a dark, winding path loops around the low play features. Each area has its own character, with space for pupils to climb, balance and explore.
A playground for year-round use
The finished playground combines the impact-absorbing qualities of wetpour with the variety of the existing play equipment and artificial grass. The result is a colourful outdoor space designed for everyday play throughout the school year.
