SIK-Holz® › SIK-HOLZ®
SIK-Holz® SIK-Holz® is an owner managed, mid-sized company, based in the south of Berlin, Germany. Founded in 1988, the company’s expertise is certified by the German chamber of wood sculpting crafts. It specializes in planning, designing and the sustainable production of individual playground equipment made from Robinia wood.

The name SIK-Holz® not only stands for individual products made from Robinia wood, it also stands for more than 220 people creating these products. They are mainly joiners, carpenters and wood carvers, but also mechanics, clerks and engineers. All of them contribute to the success of the company with their high level of responsibility. At SIK-Holz®, all departments exist under one umbrella – from construction design to production of playground equipment to installation on site. It’s possible to follow the development of a product from tree trunk to finished playground equipment through the individual production areas. Each of our products is unique. Irregularities in growth, grain, tree rings, branches and roots give our playground equipment and sculptures their individual character and make them special. The natural form and structure of the wood are maintained and have a crucial influence on the impression of our products.
By participating in societal networks we assume responsibility, especially for children and their right to free play. On the regional level, we actively participate in a company-school-cooperation. Through this direct exchange, we are able to better understand school children’s needs and provide them an insight into the world of work. After successful completion of a company-wide assessment, SIK-Holz® has been awarded a federal seal of approval for environmentally responsible crafts in the year 2010. This seal specifies a functioning environmental management system which verifies the environmental sustainability of all operational processes on a regular basis. In addition, we use climate friendly power from the Electric Power Company Schönau, generated from renewable energy and combined heat and power, with harmful CO2 emissions being 90% lower than the German average. This is our contribution to the necessary transition to clean energy.

Material & Quality
All SIK-Holz® playground equipment is made from regional Robinia wood. It is the hardest European lumber and is permitted to be used with direct exposure to soil without any chemical preservatives, as Robinia wood belongs to resistance class 1-2 in accordance to DIN EN 350-2 standards. Our Robinia wood is felled during the autumn and winter months in sustainably managed mixed forests in Brandenburg. By utilising all wood residues, any waste of material is prevented. The moisture content of the wood does not exceed 20 percent. We are certified in accordance with FSC® and PEFC® guidelines. With this certification, we are able to account for the complete flow of materials and to support sustainable forestry. We can provide FSC® or PEFC® certificates for all products shown here. We use environmentally benign wood stain for our playground equipment which is carefully crafted and soundly constructed. All wooden parts are bevelled, sharp edges and corners are chamfered. Timber joints (for example braces, extensions and crossings) are force-locked. Nettings and ropes are made of 4-stranded Hercules (nylon) material with a steel inlay. All fastening elements such as screws, bolts and brackets are zinc coated. Protruding metal parts such as bolt heads are made round, nuts and the like are recessed and secured with plastic caps. Slides are made of solid stainless steel with a thickness of 2.5 mm. Bars and climbing poles are made of stainless steel pipes with a diameter of 33.7 mm. ▶ By default our equipment is coated in Robinia light, unless stated otherwise. We are happy to arrange wood stains and rope colours according to your wishes.
Material & Quality ‹ SIK-Holz®
For us, safety of equipment and quality are inseparably connected. This is why we follow the requirements of the up-to-date European Standards for Playground Equipment EN 1176 right from the planning stage. Compliance with safety standards is verified by our staff on a regular basis. We fully integrated an ISO 9001:2008 quality management system into our organisational structures and processes. It’s the foundation for good working conditions and adherence to our high quality standards.

The Schoolyard
From barrack square to adventure space
School is an important element of our society. Everyone has spent a great part of life in school. Alongside with family, school is where values, skills and mindsets are imparted for the whole life. Everyone has been influenced by school and remembers schooldays and the schoolyard to a greater or lesser extent. The elder generation might remember it as a place with trees, shrubs and paths to hidden places, an adjacent school garden and a sports ground. This might have still been the case in the 60s. Over time, these schoolyards have been transformed to barrack squares for the sake of improved orderliness and tidiness. It became appa-
rent that such schoolyards are more prone to causing accidents. To avoid accidents, supervision during breaks is intensified, which in turn calls for improved visibility of the area. A vicious circle! What can be done? The vicious circle, that is the clean, tidy and paved area, must literally be broken up and designed in a way that is attractive to both students and teachers. This redesign requires active involvement from students and teachers, which is to a greater or lesser extend the case in many places. There is no norm that specifies how this participation should be carried out. And that’s how it should be. Else, the result could be standardised schoolyards with little individual character. There are, however, some

Requirements concerning planning law and funding and a near-term realization must be ensured before the start of participation procedures. The atmosphere, the method and the material (for example the plan of design, images) must be selected and prepared in a way that is adequate for the age-group.

The wishes of the children must be taken seriously. The decisions made and any rejected suggestions must be binding and comprehensible.
4
The design must take into consideration that spaces and areas are able to evolve and that future classes have also an opportunity to shape their school yard.

Not to be forgotten is the greatest possible involvement of stakeholders of the redesign of the schoolyard (teachers, parents, janitors, neighbours …)
basic principles that should be observed during implementation of participation procedures. User participation can take the form of painted pictures, wish lists, models and can be selective or project-specific within the scope of the implementation of individual construction stages or the care for areas that have already been newly designed, all in accordance with students’ skills. We are happy to support you in the implementation of ideas and conceptions that students developed for their schoolyards, with our experience as well as our design and technical know-how.

SIK-Holz® › General Planning Structure
General Planning Structure The schoolyard begins at the exit door
The division of school yards into functional areas has proved its worth. These functional areas do not necessarily need to be distributed equally across the schoolyard. The size, form and topography as well as the materials used depend on the way in which the space is used. Attention should be paid to the gender-specific needs in some functional areas.
natural area creative area
In the nature area children have the opportunity to experience and understand nature. It is more important than ever to give the children a chance during their school day to get to know the interactive dependencies between plant and animal world and thus to develop a sense of responsibility for the environment. Elements for retreat areas should be located in calm places in the schoolyard. By recessing, raising or planting around these areas, places of rest are automatically created. However, they can also deliberately interrupt a larger area, thus lowering the pace within this area. The creative area is particularly important at all-day schools. These include, in particular, areas where one can play creatively and imaginatively with the elements of sand and water in the afternoon. Wood and small stones for building should be available in this area, too. It is also possible to set up an outdoor workshop, if possible in the

vicinity of a shed or a storage room for tools and materials. It can provide opportunities for crafts and arts, either on a daily or project basis.
Communication areas always form where small or large groups can sit, stand or lean. Particularly wide stair steps also facilitate this. The sports area should not only be used for sports lessons, but should also be available during breaks and especially at all-day schools in the afternoon. The classic sports stadium is not necessary for this. It makes sense to have several smaller areas (e.g. football, volleyball or basketball). In these areas, manageable groups with the same intentions and interests often meet. In addition, the orientation in a smaller room is easier and the change to a different game is possible more quickly. Account when planning DIN EN 1176 »Playground equipments« and DIN EN 1177 »sPlayground flors«.
bicycles
Depending on the school size and the number of schoolchildren, the play and movement area takes up the largest part of the schoolyard. Natural elements, such as slopes and valleys, can also play a role in inviting physical activity. Playground equipment is also important in this area. Children like both traditional as well as modern variation of playing and use objects and spaces in very varied ways. It is crucial to offer a diverse and well-balanced range of play and movement in this area.

The entrance area of a school can also be a meeting point within a neighbourhood. Information about the school, about public events in the school or in the neighbourhood should be displayed here in an inviting manner. This creates a networking function for the school and improves acceptance within a neighbourhood. The entrance area is also a waiting place for students and parents. Covered seating as well as small play and movement opportunities can make the waiting more pleasant.

The child's interest depends on the possibility of making his own discoveries. m. montessori
Natural Area Experience and understand nature
With relatively small financial means, dreary schoolyards can be turned into open air laboratories for a dynamic and enthusiastic learning experience. To achieve this, every schoolyard needs a sustainable "green framework" of trees, shrubs, lawns and flower beds. The more diversity, the better. It is comparatively easy to bring a beautiful flower field to the schoolyard. It requires only a pieces of open soil. Already in the first year many wild herbs will grow. The interaction of flora and fauna can be increased within the areas of the schoolyard which are not frequented very much. By creating heaps of leaves and stones, and ideally also a small pond, many birds, insects and small animals will be attracted to the schoolyard. Nesting boxes and insect hotels can be built to observe those animals. Each child should also be able to experience the life of a plant from sowing to harvest during his school days. No great efforts are necessary for this. A small bed for each child, about half a square meter, is sufficient. Raised beds with a height of 50 cm are especially advantageous. Here, children who use wheelchairs or carry prostheses can also do garden work. Another way to create a little garden for each child is to use mobile vegetable boxes that can be
taken home during the holidays. After the harvest, the vegetables can be prepared and eaten together. Or it is processed into jam, dried fruit or tea. All of these are defining social experiences with very complex learning contents. In the computer age these things must not be lost. Each child should also learn how waste food and plant matter become valuable compost. Here the importance of earthworms, snails, beetles and other bugs can be learned through observation. Simple compost containers can be constructed by stacking and wedging some wooden boards. By evenly mixing dry and wet waste, annoying odors are prevented. But these also belong to the sensual experience of nature in a schoolyard. Other sensory experiences in the schoolyard can be self-built wind chimes that hang in the trees and appeal to the sense of hearing. Or the familiar touch path, which, by touching natural elements with feet or hands, trains the tactile sense and the temperature sense. The sense of balance is trained by interesting opportunities for movement. There are many examples for this on the following pages. Only the entirety of the senses lets us experience the dimensions of our self.

SIK-HolzŽ › Play and Movement Area
Sedentary lifestyles are the biggest problem of our health care system. Obesity, motor weaknesses and an underdeveloped sense of balance are the consequence, already in childhood.
A major requirement for the conversion or new design
of school yards must therefore be a high number of opportunities for playing and movement. A schoolyard which offers many possibilities for movement can contribute decisively to the quality of the school. This requires an elaborate area layout, which allows a large number of interactions. Movement can be encouraged in a variety of ways. Small landscaping measures and different types of surfaces can help developing a range of play forms. But smooth, paved surfaces also have their charm. They are suitable for ground and ball games during the breaks as well as for skateboarding and streetball in the afternoon. Slopes invite running up and down again. Combining them with bridges, beams or ropes results in a wide array of play paths. Stairs that lead to a higher or deeper plateau are also a basic element of encouraging movement in a schoolyard. For this purpose, the classical stair dimensions can vary in height and width in order to increase attention.
The arrangement of play equipment must fit the over-
all picture of the schoolyard. Interestingly designed climbing structures, taking into account the age structure, can both encourage movement as well as invite to relax on high-level platforms. In any case, the equipment should be designed in a way that allows access for as many children as possible.
Varying surface coverings make a schoolyard come
alive. The choice of cover must be in accordance with the function of the surface. Grass, for example, is only suitable on larger areas. Pavement is appropriate where a high user frequency exists and gravel or wood chips are suitable as fall protection material under play structures.

SIK-HolzŽ › Sports Area
Sport lessons are a welcome relief during a school day. Physical and mental exertion and relaxation, playful individual and group experiences offer a holistic experience. This experience includes the learning of social behaviors that are important for the whole of life. In sport, children learn to deal with defeat. They also learn to compare themselves strategically, mentally or physically with others and to exchange ideas. In sport, the handling of conflict situations and aggression is trained. In the case of individual sports, the students learn to pit their strength against others and to evaluate their own performance. In team sports, on the other hand, a team spirit emerges, which strengthens the social competence of the individual players. Model schools, which have introduced a daily sports lesson to the class schedule, generally show better learning outcomes and social skills among the pupils than schools that only offer a sport lesson twice a week. School sports facilities should therefore not only be used for sports lessons, but should also be available during the breaks and particularly for all-day schools also in the afternoon. The classic sports stadium is not necessary for this. It makes more sense to have several smaller areas. In these areas, manageable groups with the same intentions and interests often meet. In addition, the orientation in a smaller room is easier for the participants and the transition to a different game is quicker. When planning sports areas, free walls can also be used to paint goals or to mount basketball hoops. It should be checked beforehand whether windows are at risk by the ball games and should be latticed if necessary.

SIK-Holz® › Communication- and Retreat Area
Communication areas are both places of rest as well as places of attentiveness. Equipped with simple wooden or stone seating elements, they encourage student’s social contacts during breaks and when lessons are over. The design of the seat elements should take unconventional forms into account. Not the classic bench on which the students sit next to each other is in demand here, but structures on which one can lounge around or “chill”. Sculptures, which sometimes exert a greater attraction, can also take over this function. These types of meeting places not only offer the opportunity to retreat and relax. They are also used to present oneself in a small group. A small platform can readily become a stage and a seating log an auditorium. The larger these places are, the more they are able to assume the function of an open-air classroom. In principle, every opportunity should be used for teaching outdoors. Tribunes with several platforms, built in a semi or three-quarter circle or in an open rectangle or square, are proven to be of value. At the minimum, an open-air classroom should have 15 seats, as well as the possibility to add chairs or benches as required. When putting an open-air classroom in place, it must be taken into account that it does not interfere with other classrooms. All forms of meeting places, whether seating group, hangout or open-air classroom, are important for social and educational aspects and are indispensable in a schoolyard.
