Ephgrave's Low Outdoor Shelving

Introducing the Ephgrave's Low Outdoor Shelving – the ultimate solution to your outdoor classroom clutter conundrums! Imagine a charming, rustic hut that not only organises your resources but also adds a delightful touch of character to your outdoor play area. It’s like having a tiny, magical house right in your playground, minus the mortgage!

This fabulous Ephgrave's Low Outdoor Shelving unit comes with an open front, revealing two spacious shelves. The top shelf has space to house three smaller wooden crate boxes, perfect for storing those fiddly bits and bobs that always seem to go missing. Meanwhile, the bottom shelf boasts enough space to house two larger wooden crate boxes, ideal for bulkier items. And because we know how much you love a good multi-tasker, the side and rear of the hut doubles as a blackboard! Yes, you read that right – a blackboard! Perfect for a bit of impromptu mark making, drawing or even labelling what's inside those nifty crates. Why not fill those boxes with our Everlasting Rugged Rollers or ? The perfect addition to your outdoor construction area! Or just leave the shelves open for storage of bulkier items.

The hut’s gable roof, complete with a roof felt cover, isn’t just for show. It’s designed to keep your treasures sheltered from the elements, making this hut a robust outdoor storage solution. We know you’re busy shaping young minds, so we’ve made this hut as low-maintenance as possible. It’s treated for outdoor use, but we recommend giving it a little TLC with a retreatment every six months to keep it looking its best and ensure it stays weatherproof.

Designed specifically for EYFS settings, this Ephgrave's Low Outdoor Shelving unit encourages self-selection and independent learning opportunities, fostering a sense of responsibility and autonomy in your learners.
