Inclusive Playground for CEIP Torre de la Llebre

Based on the transformation proposals for the playground at CEIP Torre de la Llebre that emerged from the previous work process carried out by Espai Coneix SCCL, we developed a preliminary participatory project document for an inclusive playground for this educational center. Starting from a set of shared and agreed criteria on what it means to have an inclusive playground, we carried out a cooperative co-design process with the Adult and Children’s Initiative Groups from the school.

Broadly speaking, the essence of the co-design proposal is to redefine the playground so that the central area is no longer just about football and sports fields. This new central area would become an Agora space, created in the current basketball court, equipped with new bleachers, a large organizational board, and a representative mural on the ground. The sports fields are centralized into a single area, diversifying their uses instead of limiting them. New play elements are installed: tubes, wooden playhouses, a sandbox, and garden plots. All playground areas are made accessible and connected, and a proposal for themed carts is introduced to organize, facilitate, and diversify new activities in the playground.

The resulting document outlines the necessary actions to achieve the envisioned inclusive playground, allowing it to be built and transformed gradually according to the school’s efforts, priorities, and investment capacity in the coming years. The new Agora space is meant to accompany this transformation and continue to facilitate debate, agreements, or proposals for improvements to the planned changes.
