3) Central Gathering Space
• The new entrance peaks at a central gathering point with raised seat planters, additional paths, an overhead sculpture and access points to new play equipment. This central area provides an overlook station for on-duty teachers, connects the surrounding play areas and forms the southern edge of the new track that runs the perimeter of the school grounds. The overhead sculpture would be a simpler and more elegant version of the wooden structure shown here.
