Yippy Playground Projects: Monaghan Montessori, Lanseria. August 2012

Monaghan Farm Montessori is set in the Monaghan Farm development near Lanseria, giving it a beautiful and country-feel location.

Principal Xanthe Bester contacted us after she'd seen the Planet Bridge Jungle Gym we designed for Poplar Academy in Crowthorne and asked us to install one in the schools playground for her.

Yippy loves to restore and reuse materials, so we were more than happy to reduce our normal price when Xanthe told us she had an old slide she wanted us to use.

Yippy Playground Projects: Alma Mater Akademie, Krugersdorp. October 2011

In October 2011, Yippy was asked to install a few playground items at Alma Mater Akademie in Krugersdorp. We installed a climbing shape, some swings and a Tyre Cargo Net and it was Yippy's first installment since our move to Joburg, and still early days for us, it was a learning curve as well.

We'll always remember working with Alma Mater fondly, as they gave Jason (co owner and main designer, amongst many other things) the freedom for the first time to create a bespoke design for them in their playground.

Jason was excited on discussing plans with the school to find out that they had a lovely tree in their playground, that they wanted him to incorporate into a playground piece. Jason loves the chance to use nature in the playground in this way, and he'd soon come up with a design for a Tyre Tree Bridge.
