Back in the autumn!

Well, we have received so many applications it is really exciting! The work involved in getting to this point has been hectic but we have;
involved all the key stage two classes and many of the key stage one classes in dreaming and imagining how the outdoor grounds could help our learning. We are keeping all those ideas because they will provide a basis for any other work we want to develop outside;

we have drafted and planned a brief, with the input and ideas given by the school council. That part of the process was great because the pupil voice was taken seriously and their views helped to focus our ideas. The children had so many thoughtful ideas about the kind of person that they would like to work with and the skills they should bring to our school, and it was a very positive conversation;

we have had input from one of our school governors, who has been invaluable in helping us think through the process, asking questions that have helped us refine what we are looking for;

we have waited to see who would respond to our advert and brief with eager anticipation...!
