They\u2019re hoping to convert an old courtyard in the centre of the school into an attractive and welcoming outdoor space that can be used as a quiet seating area for children at break and lunchtimes, a calm area for mentoring, as well as an outdoor classroom, with opportunities for science, art and literacy.<\/p>\n<p>The children are very much at the centre of the project. The school council organised a survey to find out the type of seating, planters and water features that the children would like and they\u2019ll be able to contribute their own artwork in the form of a huge mosaic. Now local stores have stepped in to help.<\/p>\n<p>Caldecott\u2019s garden project was one of the good causes in Waitrose\u2019s Community Matters project in April and will be one of Tesco\u2019s Bags of Help causes throughout May and June.
