Covered Outdoor Classrooms
A roof, a floor and room for everyone, so an outdoor lesson stops being weather dependent.
- Made to measure
- Solid or clear roof
- Open or part-clad sides
- Posts set into the ground
[ What we build ]
A classroom with the roof on and the walls off.
An outdoor classroom only earns its place if a lesson can happen in it when the weather turns. Everything here is drawn, built and installed by our own team, sized for the class that will use it.

[ How they are built ]
Built for Welsh weather
Posts that do not rot
Galvanised steel posts are concreted into the ground and the timber legs sit over them, so the timber never sits in wet ground.
The timber
Locally sourced oak and sweet chestnut, alongside Douglas fir, larch and spruce, from managed forests.
The finish
Everything is finished in an oil-based product, and we recommend re-coating each spring.
Drawn before it is built
Every structure is drawn by hand, to scale, before anything is cut.
[ Bilingual as standard ]
Welsh and English, carved to order
We carve and router in Welsh and English, and we make a bilingual range of learning panels and shapes used in schools across Wales. The Welsh is designed in from the start rather than added afterwards.

We come back.
Everything we make is finished in an oil-based product, and we recommend re-coating each spring. That stops the timber cracking and splintering, keeps the water out and slows the algae that makes a surface slippery.
On a yearly maintenance plan we come back, inspect the timber, make good any minor damage and re-spray it. In year five we add an anti-fungal treatment.
