What is Playworks?

Playworks works with schools to design curriculum and activities that offer play opportunities during recess, lunch and after school programs. Trained coaches work in schools to run a variety of games and sports, as well as teach techniques in group management, violence prevention and conflict resolution

At Santiago School, Playworks help establish a recess environment that is safe inclusive, and creates healthy community through healthy play. We want every student on the playground to feel included, be active, and build valuable social and emotional skills. Recess should be a wonderful break in the day for kids!
