PHYSICAL FACILITY, EQUIPMENT AND FURNISHINGS: 11190 - CCLR s.16(4)(b) - A licensee must ensure that all indoor and outdoor play materials and equipment accessible to children are (b) safely constructed, free from hazards and in good repair.
Observation: Tripping hazard has been temporarily resolved. The damaged storage bin has been removed. The resilient surfacing under the slide has yet to be addressed. The Licensee has submitted some details of the renovations on the outdoor play area that will address some of the previous contraventions. The slide/climber structure has been relocated to an area near a large tree. This area poses a risk to the children playing on the structure as it is within the fall zone of a large tree. The staff relayed that the climber / slide is not being used at this time. LO encouraged staff to make the climber ladder and slide inaccessible while the renovations are underway as it currently is accessible to the children playing in the area. LO additionally discussed with staff that a plan or drawing of the proposed redesigned outdoor play space would need to be submitted to ensure safety concerns are addressed prior to proceeding with the renovation on the outdoor play area.
Corrective Action(s): Ensure the outdoor play materials and equipment accessible to children are safely constructed, free from hazards and in good repair.
