Play is an essential part of learning.
Project
Situated around 12km north of Launceston in Tasmania, the growing suburban area of Legana is becoming increasingly popular with young families. As the population has grown, so too has the need for a new school.
The first new school in Tasmania in many years, Legana Primary School is the result of almost five years of community consultation, planning and building. It reflects the government’s commitment to this rapid growth area.
Design
From the expansive learning courtyard to a contemporary playground overlooking the natural environment, the school’s outdoor areas were designed by SBLA Studio to foster learning and collaboration through play.
Equipment
Vos Construction engaged the expertise of Urbania for the specification and supply of a wide range of play equipment for the school. Working in collaboration with our partners Richter Spielgeräte, we supplied a climbing trunk, sand hoist, climbing net, a toddlers table and much more.
Review
After SBLA Studio posted a sneak peak of the Legana Primary project on Instagram, well known landscape architect Mark McDowall commented, “Now that’s absolutely gorgeous!”
