For those of you in the UK, London or Suffolk area;
We are looking for some volunteers to complete our team to help finish an outdoor classroom woven from bamboo at a school in Suffolk. We are quite far with the structure but are in need of some help over 2-days with the finishing touches!
We will be driving from London each morning and return early evening on, Friday the 25th & Saturday 26th March and can give people a lift.
(We will also provide lunch and refreshments)

We have been working as creative practitioners at a primary school for the Creative Partnerships Scheme, with the brief to create an outdoor learning environment together with staff and pupils. Over the past year we have developed strategies and interventions for outdoor learning and are now building a small village of nests using bamboo and living material and encouraging the area to grow tall and wild. The children at the school will thatch the structure the following week and be preparing for a launch and celebration of the space.
Please email me if your interested and I can give you more details on the work involved and the project in general.
A vision of a city that metabolizes its resources and waste to supply its inhabitants with all the nourishment they need and more.
