Magazine - Dreams of TigerTurf come True

Since the Australian Government announcement back in February to invest $14.7billion to boost the Education Revolution, TigerTurf have been inundated with work.

TigerTurf’s General Manager, Grant Burgess, says TigerTurf received an unprecedented number of enquiries and interest in our services. At one stage, we had to use Google Earth to pinpoint the potential sites to enable us to provide indicative costings for funding applications.

Since April our construction and installation crews have been busy turning concept into reality and will be throughout the rest of the year.
 
One particular Primary School, Camp Hill in Bendigo has been able to transform a second area with TigerTurf. ‘In the past 18 months Camp Hill Primary School has laid synthetic turf on two unattractive areas of the playground. Both areas had taken a beating in the drought and had become virtually unusable for the students. The lush green surface provided by the turf has made a huge impact not only aesthetically, but also the areas are now eagerly accessed by our students, and utilised by teachers and students during class time.

TigerTurf provided excellent suggestions and support to the school in the quotation stage. Both installations went smoothly and were done at time to have the least impact on the school’, says Principal, Leonie Robert.
