Make the schoolyard greener, healthier and more fun

A healthy living environment for students starts with a healthy schoolyard! The Healthy School Incentive Scheme is a temporary subsidy scheme to help schools create a healthy and inspiring play environment. And we are happy to think along!

The days are getting longer, the spring bulbs are shooting out of the ground and it is becoming more and more fun to play outside. But is your schoolyard really inviting? Or is there still room for improvement? Good news! There is now a temporary subsidy scheme to help schools create a healthy and inspiring play environment. This allows education professionals to continue working independently on a healthy living environment for students. This scheme applies to primary education, special education and secondary education.

Applications can be submitted until April 15, 2025!

Do you want to continue brainstorming with us after this period about greening and improving playgrounds at your school or within your municipality? We are happy to help you! Our mission is to let children grow up more outdoors in a green environment, in which playing, nature and development come together.

We design natural playgrounds, green schoolyards and many more high-quality outdoor spaces. Take contact with us and discover the possibilities.

Together we make playing outside not only more fun, but also greener!

It's always fun to see our designs come to life! Last summer, we had an inspiring garden tour day with several stops along the way. From private gardens to public green spaces, we couldn't stop talking about design, planting, and color combinations.

Jana's Romantic Garden in Our Own Garden

According to Jana, the romantic garden is a place where silence and melancholy converge. Not perfection and control, but natural forms such as winding paths, sloping lawns, and asymmetry.
