Play Panels & Tunnels

Rhino Play’s range of brightly coloured and eye-catching outdoor play panels are available in various themes, shapes and sizes. Play panels make a fantastic addition to any school and nursery or local authority playground. The panels can be easily installed either as free-standing elements or on walls or gates, perfect for playgrounds that may have limited space. Activity panels are fun and engaging for children of all ages and abilities and can be used for either school-based learning activities or during playtime.

Play Panels For Outdoor Classrooms

We have designed a wide variety of play panels, which offer children hours of fun and entertainment, allowing their imaginations to run wild and interact with different everyday scenarios. Not only are play panels a great addition to children’s break times, but they can also be used alongside the school’s curriculum.

Taking students outside of the classroom to continue their learning in a new, dynamic and exciting way can motivate and encourage children to learn. Teachers can integrate the play panels into their lesson plans for a range of subjects including numeracy, literacy, music or geography. Get children excited to tell the time, discuss what the weather’s like or learn the alphabet by stepping outside of the traditional teaching methods and incorporating the playground and play panels into the teaching plan.
