Play Area at Lisbane Drive, Saintfield

23rd May 2018

The school has been requested to pass on this information from PlayBoardNI in conjunction with Newry, Mourne and Down District Council.

Dear Principal,

In 2016/17 Newry, Mourne and Down District Council carried out a review of the play value of all its fixed play areas.  Following this review, the Play Strategy recommended that future play provision in the area currently served by Lislane Drive, Saintfield should be upgraded to a higher play value site. 

In line with the Council’s commitment to consultation we are conducting this survey to assess local views on the site and to identify preferred options for enhancing play provision within the overall area.

Please find below the links for two surveys regarding the local Play Space at Lislane Drive, Saintfield. The first survey link is aimed towards parents and carers, the second appropriate for children and young people.

We at PlayBoard would appreciate the advertisement of these surveys on your website, social media and/or School Newsletter, and would like to thank you for your co-operation during this process. The views and opinions of the local children, young people and communities are highly important to us, providing an opportunity to actively participate in the process of improving play experiences. Please note that the closing date for completed surveys is Thursday 31st May @ 5pm.

The survey for Parents/Carers and Community Organisations can be found at:

The Survey for Children and Young People can be found at:

I would like to extend my thanks to the staff, pupils and their parents for their participation in the consultation process.

If you require any further information, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards,

Maeve McLaughlin
