The Highland Council is in the process of developing a playpark strategy and would like Caithness children to be at the heart of the conversation.

To steer its strategy in the right direction the council would like to find out how children want to play in the future and what they want to see in their local play parks.

Highland Council aims to reach as many people as possible, and is asking children of all ages, teenagers, parents, and caregivers to complete a questionnaire to capture their views.

The questions have been designed so Early Year Practitioners, teachers, caregivers, and parents can create a relaxed conversation with younger children and then complete the form on the child’s behalf.

For children who are at the beginning stages of reading, adults can support them through the easy colours and photos. The only ‘required’ answer is the area in which you live. All other questions can be completed as able.

Please ensure questionnaires are completed by 5pm on Friday, October 20.
