At Kents Hill Infant Academy, we understand that playtimes and lunchtimes are vital parts of the school day, offering children the opportunity to interact, socialize, and recharge. We ensure that these periods are filled with fun, guided activities, and ample space for free play, allowing children to develop essential social skills, creativity, and physical coordination.
Our playground is designed to foster an environment where every child feels safe and engaged. Supervised by our dedicated staff, children are encouraged to explore, make friends, and enjoy the outdoors, promoting their overall well-being. We believe that positive play experiences build a strong foundation for personal growth and contribute to a thriving school community.
At KHIA we are lucky to have different playgrounds and zones to support pupils who like different kinds of play. The children can choose where they wish to play at lunch times. We ask that a named pair of wellies is sent into school. These are stored so that children can play on the grass in all weathers.
We offer:
A sports playground a field to play ball games, and use other PE equipment.
A quiet playground with tuff trays for quiet play.
STEM equipment for playing with pthers, building and creating.
Play leaders that are trained to make games up with pothers.
