Organising a group outing for a nursery or primary school class is no small feat. Teachers and group leaders need a venue that is safe, secure, easy to reach, and, most importantly, guaranteed to be fun, regardless of the unpredictable Scottish weather.
At Fun Street, we have designed our facility to be the ultimate destination for school trips and nursery group bookings in Glasgow. Located conveniently within Silverburn Shopping Centre, we offer a controlled, engaging environment where children can learn through play.
Why Choose Fun Street for Your Next Group Outing?
When you bring a large group of children to Fun Street, you are getting much more than just a standard soft play session.
1. A Safe and Secure Environment
Safety is our top priority. Our facility features secure entry and exit points, ensuring that your group remains safely within the Fun Street area. Our play frames are rigorously maintained and designed to the highest safety standards, giving teachers and chaperones peace of mind.
2. Weather-Proof Planning
There is nothing worse than planning an outdoor trip only to have it ruined by rain. Fun Street is Scotland’s only fully climate-controlled indoor play centre. Whether it is freezing winter or a surprisingly hot summer day, the temperature inside is always perfect for active play.
3. Learning Through Play
Play is essential for early years development. Our zones are designed to stimulate different skills:
•Physical Development: Navigating the multi-level play frame builds gross motor skills, balance, and coordination.
•Social Skills: Shared play areas encourage cooperation, turn-taking, and communication among classmates.
•Problem Solving: Navigating the different levels and obstacles encourages children to think strategically and overcome challenges.
4. Easy Logistics and Transport
Located at Silverburn, getting here is incredibly straightforward. There is ample free parking for coaches and minibuses, and excellent public transport links. You won’t have to worry about navigating narrow city centre streets or paying exorbitant parking fees.
