Rustics Jungle Gyms recently installed its Tarantula Playground System at
Parklands Special school in East London.
We asked Deputy Principal, Jeanette Kelly why she chose the Tarantula. She said, “We purchased the Tarantula Play System for our Autistic Unit. Gross motor activities are very important for their development and, after investigating all the options, the Tarantula was the best option. It is a very good price and it allows a good number of learners to use it simultaneously.
“It is exactly what our learners need. They can hang, climb and balance all on one structure rather than having many loose standing structures, which is a big space saving.
Jeanette adds, “Individual teachers take their learners to the Tarantula during gross motor periods and the Physiotherapists are using it for therapy with individual learners and with small groups, e.g. a group of learners with Cerebral Palsy.”
