OPAL PLAY AT HARTPURY
In June 2026, Hartpury School was awarded a second Platinum Award for OPAL. The OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning) Platinum Award is the highest possible accreditation a primary school can receive from the UK-based OPAL programme. It is exceptionally prestigious, recognizing schools that dedicate outstanding strategic effort to providing inclusive, active, and creative daily outdoor play. We are very proud of this award and for all the work the team put into this wonderful provision. A special mention to Mrs Merrin for her leading role and passion behind all things play.
