Freethorpe & District Pre-School – Commercial Awning

Freethorpe & District Pre-School wanted to create shade from thesun for their pupils and were hoping to have a retractable awning installed. In November 2010 they chose to have a 3.5m x 3.6m Parkhurst awning installed, they chose blue and white striped fabric with white framework which was installed successfully in March 2011. The installation allowed the children to have much more access to the outdoors and all of the children and staffed loved the new awning.

Size: 3.5x 3.6m

Installed at:

Freethorpe & District Pre-School
c/o Freethorpe Community Primary School

Here’s what Freethorpe & District Pre-School had to say about Able Canopies:
“The staff were all very friendly and helpful and the service we received was efficient and professional.”
“Having our awning in place has made a huge difference to our pre-school. The children are able to have much more access to the outdoors which they love. We have been able to do more outdoor activities such as planting seeds and growing vegetables, and offer new fun and stimulating learning opportunities whilst enjoying the benefits of being outside. It is even better than we anticipated and we have received lots of positive feedback from the community. The children love it and we have been able to build it into a learning opportunity for them as they recognise the importance of keeping safe in the sun.”
