Benefits of Shade Sails for Early Learning Centres and Schools
Providing safe outdoor spaces is important for schools and early learning centres. One of the easiest ways to protect children from the sun is by installing well-designed shade sails. Shade Sails for Early Learning Centres and Schools help create covered areas where children can play and learn without being exposed to harmful UV rays.
At Lidgard Shades, we design and manufacture every shade sail in-house, giving us full control over quality at every stage. We build our shade sails to withstand New Zealand’s weather conditions, providing schools and centres with a strong and reliable solution.
Protecting Children from the Sun
New Zealand has some of the highest UV radiation levels in the world. Children’s skin is sensitive and can burn easily, even on cloudy days. Shade sails provide a simple but effective way to reduce direct sun exposure during outdoor activities.
By covering playgrounds, sandpits, and outdoor learning spaces with shade sails, schools and early learning centres can create a safer environment. Children can still enjoy being outside without the added risk of sunburn or heat exhaustion.
Safe and Durable Shade Sails for Early Learning Centres and Schools
At Lidgard Shades, we make all our shade sails using high-quality fabrics that are designed to block out a high percentage of UV rays. Our materials are also strong enough to handle wind and weather, making them a safe choice for schools and early childhood centres.
We manufacture our shade sails in New Zealand, which means we can customise them to fit any space. Whether it is a large playground or a small outdoor learning area, we work with you to design a shade solution that meets your needs. Because we oversee the full process, from design to installation, we can guarantee the quality and durability of every sail we supply.
Added Safety with Pole Pads
Safety is always a top priority when working with schools and early learning centres. As part of our commitment to child safety, we offer pole pads for all our shade sail installations.
Pole pads are soft coverings placed around the steel poles that support the shade sails. They help reduce the risk of injury if a child accidentally bumps into a pole during play.
We use durable materials to make our pole pads and design them to stay securely in place. They are easy to maintain and can match the colours of your shade sails for a smart, professional finish.
