Description
Communicate sun-safety requirements clearly with this hat-policy notice for outdoor play sessions. Designed for primary schools, OSHC, early-learning centres, and childcare providers across Australia where UV protection and parental communication are priorities. Offered in colorbond, polypropylene 1.6mm, and self-adhesive vinyl at four standard sizes from 250×180 mm to 600×450 mm. Polypropylene works well indoors on notice boards and parent-facing areas; colorbond is durable for outdoor play-area fencing and weather-exposed surfaces. Larger formats (450×300 mm and above) ensure visibility from a distance. Platinum Signs supplies childcare networks across Australia with competitive trade pricing on bulk orders. Mounting holes and lamination are available. Delivery nationwide within 5–7 working days.
Final sign type, wording, size, placement and material depend on the site risk, project specification and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with the relevant WHS adviser or regulator.

Frequently asked
What size is best for a playground or outdoor learning area?
Available sizes are 250 x 180mm, 300 x 225mm, 450 x 300mm, 600 x 450mm. Viewing-distance notes are a practical selection aid, not a substitute for checking the approach distance, lighting, mounting position, wording and site risk assessment.
Should I choose polypropylene or colorbond for outdoor mounting?
Colorbond 0.55mm is weather-resistant and ideal for fencing, posts, and exposed areas. Polypropylene suits covered noticeboards or indoor parent-communication displays.
Can I order multiple sizes for different areas of the facility?
Absolutely. Many childcare providers order larger signs for playgrounds and smaller ones for parent noticeboards. We'll combine sizes in one delivery.
Do you offer lamination to extend the sign's life?
Yes. Lamination protects against UV fading, moisture, and scratches—particularly valuable for outdoor play-area signs exposed to sun and weather.
What discount applies to childcare chains ordering multiple locations?
Volume-pricing examples are 5 signs: 8% off, 10 signs: 15% off, 25 signs: 24% off, 50 signs: 32% off, 100 signs: 40% off. Savings increase gradually between these quantities. The total increases as you add more signs, while the average price per sign falls or stays the same. The configurator calculates the total for your selected quantity.
