Summer might be over, but that certainly doesn't mean the fun has to stop. As pupils return to classrooms and a new school year gets underway, Infl8 Hire can help schools, PTAs, nurseries and other education settings put some bounce into the autumn term with School Event Hire, Bouncy Castles, games, inflatables and complete entertainment packages.
We provide school event equipment in Scunthorpe, Hull, Doncaster, Grimsby, Beverley, Cleethorpes, Goole, Barton-upon-Humber and throughout our wider delivery area. Whether you're already planning a September event or looking ahead to the colder months, there are plenty of opportunities to add something different to the school calendar.
A positive start to the new school year
The first few weeks back at school can be busy for everyone. Children are getting used to new classrooms, new teachers and different routines, while new pupils may still be finding their feet. A fun activity day can provide a change of pace and give pupils an opportunity to spend time together outside the usual classroom setting.
Bouncy Castles are an easy way to introduce some active entertainment, while our Assault Courses can keep larger groups moving with obstacles, climbing sections and slides. For schools looking for something particularly energetic, inflatables can become part of a wider activity day rather than being treated as an end-of-year-only attraction.
Autumn isn't just for sitting indoors
The cooler weather doesn't automatically rule out an outdoor school event. September and early autumn can still provide plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities, and our team can help you select suitable equipment for the event you have planned.
Schools can choose from Inflatable Slides, Competitive Inflatables, Sports Inflatables and Interactive Games, creating an event where pupils can move between several different activities. These options can work particularly well for sports events, house competitions, activity afternoons and reward days.
And when the autumn weather has other ideas?
British autumn weather isn't always interested in the plans you've made for it. That's why it's worth considering Indoor Hire when organising events later in the term. School halls, sports halls and other suitable indoor spaces can provide opportunities for entertainment without relying entirely on the weather.
Smaller inflatables, Soft Play, Didi Cars, Giant Games and other suitable equipment can all form part of an indoor event. If you're unsure what will fit, speak to us about the dimensions and access at your venue before booking.
New pupils, new friends and plenty to do
Not every autumn event needs to be a huge school fair. Smaller year-group activities can help pupils mix with their classmates and provide a relaxed environment for new friendships to develop. Games are particularly useful because they give children something to do together without requiring a complicated organised programme.
Try Crazy Golf (9 Holes), Basketball Challenge, Inflatable Basketball Game or Penalty Shooutout. For traditional event entertainment, our Funfair Games can introduce activities such as Hook A Duck, Coconut Shy and other retro favourites.
Give the PTA an autumn fundraising opportunity
The autumn term also brings a fresh calendar of PTA activities. Rather than waiting until next summer's fete, schools can use Fundraising Fun at autumn fairs, family evenings and community events.
Funfair Side Stall Games can become part of a traditional fundraising setup, while games and inflatables give families another reason to stay at the event for longer. Add suitable Fun Foods and you've got the ingredients for an autumn event that feels very different from an ordinary school day.
Something for younger pupils too
Nurseries, preschools and infant classes aren't left out. Our Toddler Bouncy Castles, Soft Play and Ball Pools provide options designed with younger children in mind.
There are plenty of themes to choose from too. Younger fans can enjoy Bluey Bouncy Castles, Paw Patrol Bouncy Castles, Peppa Pig Bouncy Castles, Peter Rabbit Bouncy Castles and Teddy Bears Picnic Bouncy Castles. These can be particularly useful when a school or nursery wants to give an event a clear children's theme.
Autumn rewards don't have to wait until Christmas
Schools often use special activities to recognise good attendance, positive behaviour, achievement or the completion of a busy half term. An inflatable and games session can provide a reward pupils can enjoy together, whether it's arranged for one class, a year group or a larger section of the school.
Older children might prefer the competitive side of Assault Courses, Sports Inflatables and Party Games Hire, while themed Bouncy Castles can work well with younger age groups. With a broad equipment range available, the event can be adapted to the pupils taking part rather than relying on one attraction for everyone.
Half term will arrive sooner than you think
September always feels like the beginning of a long term, but October half term soon appears on the calendar. If you're considering a school disco, autumn fair, reward afternoon, PTA fundraiser or end-of-half-term celebration, planning early gives you more choice when selecting equipment.
Our Disco Domes, Inflatable Nightclub and Party Tech Hire can also help schools take the event in a completely different direction, particularly for discos and activities aimed at older pupils.
