School Playground Financing with NPO Funds
With the National Programme for Education (NPO) the Dutch government contributes to the development of education in the Netherlands. The Solar Playground is a proven effective method that falls within the ministry’s menu. Movement-based learning has clear benefits for the cognitive and motor skills of elementary school children. This makes full funding with the NPO funds possible. And this is not only beneficial in the short term; with a lifespan of about 10 years, the Solar Playground also contributes to the development of education in the Netherlands in the long term!
