Manurewa Intermediate was one of the first schools to identify that inspiring outdoor areas would benefit students and staff alike. When Iain Taylor became principal over a decade ago not a broom but a bulldozer went through the grounds. The dreary school grounds were transformed into herb and veges gardens, outdoor BBQ areas, an amphitheater, interesting wooden walkways, and an orchard was added as well.

Under a beautiful old oak tree, a big deck was built to enable the students to have lunch and break times in the shade. A sheltered outdoor area with seating and BBQ was built for the staff. A fale and marae were built on the school grounds to represent the multicultural background of students and teachers. Around the sports fields, Iain had the vision to plant trees when he just started his role at the school which means they are now well established giving much-needed shade in the summer time. The school is an example of how outdoor spaces transform the look and feel of an educational environment.

At our yard we have built a showroom where our designers can guide you in what materials would best fit your project, e.g. paving, decking, lighting etc. You can also provide an existing plan to quote your project from and then we will guide you through the landscaping works from start to finish. Luijten Landscaping has a nursery that enables us to provide a large selection of the highest quality plants. If the nursery cannot provide the variety or quantity of plants for your project we will happily source them from one of our nationwide suppliers.
