Doubletrees School, of St. Blazey, is set to transform their all-inclusive play area, and are now even closer to getting the project underway thanks to a donation from local new homes developer Gilbert & Goode. The school’s all-inclusive play area, in dire need of a facelift, will soon be revamped, providing an enhanced experience for the children who attend Doubletrees.

 

Gemma Stockley, Teaching Assistant at Doubletrees School, expressed her gratitude: “A huge thank you to Gilbert and Goode for your very generous donation to Doubletrees School. We are undertaking a complete renovation of our inclusive adventure playground and will be using the donation to achieve this huge task. On behalf of all children and staff here at Doubletrees School, thank you!”

 

Gordon Inness, Managing Director at Gilbert & Goode, firmly believes in giving back to the communities where we operate. “It’s ingrained in our guiding principles. We constantly explore avenues to make a positive impact. I’m genuinely thrilled that our donation will propel Doubletrees toward success in their latest project, enriching student education. After all, play isn’t just play—it’s an essential part of learning.”

 

Doubletrees School extends heartfelt thanks to Gilbert & Goode for their commitment to enhancing the educational experience for local children. The revamped play area promises to be a space where inclusivity and joy thrive, fostering growth and imagination.
