Foundations of a new future

Well, the foundations are going in!  In the picture below you can just make out the footprint of the new building.  Towards the bottom left hand corner will be the office and the reception area and you may be able to work out the large play space in the middle, which will have folding doors to lead onto the garden.

The mound of earth at the back will eventually become the wildlife garden, full of all sorts of creatures and plants for the children to explore in supervised sessions.

You may also have noticed the bat and bird boxes on some of the trees.  These are part of our efforts to protect the existing wildlife that may have been disturbed by our building works, to encourage new wildlife to take up residence, and also to provide interesting learning opportunities for the children in the future.  It's amazing how diverse and thriving small piece of land can be, and we hope it will stay that way!
