Covers for Schools        view portfolio

We are keen to work with schools with our practical solution to the problem of covering ponds in wildlife gardens. 

School Frog Pond Safety Cover School Flower Pond Safety Cover School Butterfly Pond Safety Cover School Fish Pond Safety Cover 

Our covers provide excellent access for pond dipping and unlike flat grills there is no danger of children getting trapped underneath the covers.  Children cannot walk on the covers and if unruly behaviour should occur the covers are strong enough to withstand it!

We are happy to work with children on the design as part of the process if this is required.

Please read about our cover at Blackmarston School in Hereford or click here for more information on commissioning a bespoke cover.

All our covers are designed to meet RoSPA pond safety guidelines, have been subject to independent risk analysis (FMEA) and are securely fitted to the pond surround.

Schools might also be interested in our Pondlife Ponds - our rigid pond liners complete with covers which come as a complete unit and are easy to install.
