Some schools have assault courses or elaborate play ground equipment. Therevmay be playground equipmnt for the pre-prep children. Some schools may have more elaborate euipment for the older children. Often freetime is more devoted to sports than playground equipment. This varies from school to school. These tend to be popular, especially with the boys. They are used both for free play and as part of P.E. classes, depending on the school. The schools have, however, encountered problems with insurance.

Assault Course

We haveaparatus for an assault course during some P.E. lessons. I did the course five timesand never touched thevground once. My favourite aparatus is the ropes and te rope ladders.
