## Notice

The existing play area needs to be removed by the contractors and a replacement put in place which will encompass and facilitate play for children aged 5 - 8 years. The play area needs to include swinging, spinning, climbing, sliding, springing, balancing and jumping and should facilitate imaginative, physical, social, role and deep play.
