Another long term project that we are progressing is the outdoor environment at HECC. There has been a series of meetings with Jill Rice, Get Outside: Landscapes for Learning, a designer who has managed to work through our VERY long list of things we want in the outdoor area so the tamariki, whānau and teachers can maximise opportunities for teaching and learning. As much as possible the playground is accessible to children in their chairs and also those that are independently mobile. Attached is a draft design which is up on the office wall for consultation. Please look and let us know your ideas, positive and negative. There is a very short time frame for consultation this time around!
This is the draft plan of the outdoor environment at Homai ECC.
