Mission Statement:
The Dream Big Project is a collaborative effort of Hayhurst children, parents, teachers and the surrounding community, working together to design, fund, and build an innovative, imaginative and durable playground that will replace the existing (decades-old) structure and be enjoyed and treasured by all in the community.
Our goals are to:
1. Provide a playful environment that integrates nature and stimulates imaginative and educational play.
2. Promote social interaction among children of all ages and abilities.
3. Provide a safe and environmentally conscious play area for all children and their families in the community to play,
gather, and grow.
About:
Hayhurst Elementary School is a public school nestled in SW Portland. Under the guidance of Principal Deanne Froehlich and our amazing teachers and staff, our students have thrived academically. It is now time they are rewarded with a playground that engages and strengthens their physical, imaginative, and social abilities.
