unctional – and fun! That’s the best way to describe our brand
new HappyStack® storage system. With its vivid colours that
brighten any playroom or classroom and its deep trays to hold
plenty of toys, games and educational materials, HappyStack®
is what teachers have been waiting for.
Rugged, durable and created specially for the nursery and primary
school environment, HappyStack® is easy to assemble and comes as a
double or treble unit. Fitted with our famous super-tough Gratnells
trays, HappyStack® can withstand the rigours of daily school use, yet still
look great.
End panels of HappyStack® are available in bright colours, and can be
customised with a range of different decals, including your own nursery
or school crest. And the wooden crossbars allow each row of trays to be
tilted forward, giving a clear view of tray contents.
We believe our new HappyStack® will be a big hit. Not just
with teachers, but children too. Can tidying up really be fun?
It can now, thanks to HappyStack®.

aterials, toys and educational items come in all kinds of shapes and
sizes. But all too often, storing them presents a real problem. Odd pieces
of shelving, various cupboards and cabinets may offer
a temporary solution, but certainly don’t provide the ideal teaching or
play environment.
Thankfully, the Gratnells storage system is at hand. Our tried and tested
approach has been designed to cope with a whole range of storage
requirements using trolley-and-tray units specially designed for early
learning and primary school needs.
Gratnells storage trolleys come in single, double or treble unit frames,
holding four different heights of our world-famous, super-strong trays.
The frames are fully welded and are available in red or blue with a choice
of castors or feet. All trays are fully interchangeable between units and
other standard school furniture, and come in a range of colours to suit
any school decor. Special items, such as our Art Trolley and A3 Paper
Trolley give additional storage ability for items like large sheets of paper,
unfinished artwork or jigsaw puzzles.

Quadrant trays on four chrome stands can be clipped together to make
a sturdy activity circle or lined up in a row to allow more children access
at the same time. Fill them with sand, water, earth, shells whatever

learning resource.
The Exploration Circle recently won a Silver Award in the Creative Play
category at the Practical Preschool Awards 2012.
‘Fantastic, wonderful, brilliant’ is how the testers described the set.
‘We thought of lots of uses for this product and how it could facilitate
learning in all areas of education. The children use this on a daily basis.
The drawers can facilitate large items; it is not just a sand and water tray,
it is a communal hot spot!
O

their well-mounted brackets to create ‘floating’
storage spaces. The trays fit right into the
corner at whatever height off the ground
that suits your needs.
