Rock Solid Builds Takes on an Outdoor Classroom

When we think of design and renovations our minds often go straight to residential homes. It’s easy to see why, they’re what we see the most. However, there’s a lot more to restore than just that. Randy Spracklin and his team are back for another season of Rock Solid Builds and it’s anything but typical. From chicken coops in the sky to homes built from a ship’s mast, nothing is too strange or challenging for this crew. That’s why, when a school in St. John’s needed to transform a derelict yard into a one-of-a-kind outdoor classroom, they called Randy and his team.

Rough and Rugged

For most spaces there is a clear divide between the indoor and the outdoor. Normally they have varying and distinct purposes. That wouldn’t be the case for this future outdoor classroom. The space would become a versatile area for children to learn and study in a peaceful environment. Before any of that could take place, the yard was in desperate need of an overhaul. So, the Newfound Builders with the help of a few local volunteers, rolled up their sleeves and got to work.

Outdoor Overhaul

After repairing the area for new sod and landscaping, the space was ready for a muralist to come in to create a massive piece, celebrating inclusivity. From there the team, including the designers, installed various forms of seating as outdoor workstations. The end result was a place where students ages K through 9 could escape and feel safe during their studies. Thanks to the Rock Solid Builds team this build will stand the test of time for countless students to come.
