Playtime at West Boldon Primary is better than ever!

We are so excited about our newest OPAL addition; large play barrels! These have quickly become a huge hit with the children, sparking endless creativity and teamwork.

This week, the children got together to transform the barrels into a giant tunnel, and it’s been incredible to see all the imaginative ways they’ve been using it! From balancing and climbing to crawling and negotiating turns, it’s been wonderful to watch children of all ages playing together and developing essential skills along the way.

And guess what? Even our amazing OPAL staff couldn’t resist joining in the fun! Seeing them get stuck into the action has made playtime even more special.

At West Boldon, we believe in the power of outdoor play to bring creativity, joy, and collaboration to life Thank you to everyone who helps make moments like these possible.

What will the children come up with next? We can’t wait to find out!
