This past week students have been working with natural builder, James Thompson, helping to create a cob bench in our outdoor classroom space. The bench is starting to take shape and with the help of Julia Hamlin, and our parent volunteers the children have had opportunities to learn about cob and how it is made and how people have been using it for hundreds of years to create buildings and structures. By the end of school on Monday, all classroom will have had an opportunity to take part in the project. Below are a few images from our work.
