Andy and I spent the hottest day ever talking to all the pupils. They were all asked to think about the one thing they liked about their existing school and what the one thing they would like to have in their new school. They were all given a piece of cut card to draw both elements. The results were amazing and slowly over the day we built the most incredible 'sculpture' of wishes and desires!
It was really useful for us to understand what the children [and staff] hold dear - the field, outdoor learning and their teachers! We had a few swimming pools in for the new school, but also brilliant suggestions like a 'reading rocket'!

It was an ace day and really good way to get to know the whole school!!!
