Why Melbourne Schools Need Playground Marking That Survives Thousands of Kids?
A primary school in Preston called us about their worn-out playground. The foursquare courts were so faded kids argued constantly about whether balls were in or out. Teachers spent more time settling disputes than supervising play. The school wanted bright, durable marking before the new term. We marked twelve foursquare courts, eight hopscotch grids, a number snake, compass rose, and Australian map during the school holidays. All in bright colours with numbered squares. The principal said playground behaviour improved dramatically. We made a size error at a school in Doncaster in 2017. We marked foursquare courts at competition size, but the school had mostly junior students. Little arms couldn't cover the big squares. We remarked at junior size at our cost, around $1,600.
