Primary Playground
The primary playground at Adam’s Elementary is not only large by area but also has great play value as well. The physical and cognitive requirements of this structure develop its users by challenging them with new and different tasks. The structure also features the industry’s largest integrated shade that is 24 x 24 feet, which provides nearly 600 sq. ft of shade!
Preschool Area / GaGa Pit
Adam’s Elementary was the first school in the San Diego Unified School district to install a true GaGa Pit. The panels on the pits can feature any custom design. The GaGa Pit here features a world map, hello in 10 different languages, Adam’s Elementary name, mascot depiction, and finally the rules for the GaGa Pit game. These pits are becoming very popular in elementary schools across the nation – contact us to find out how we can get one near you.
