Here are details of five panels made for a formally uninspired wall for the school sensory garden.

Unfired bricks were carved by the children and fired in the kiln and then built in to a planter in the garden.

A mosaic factory was set up in the class room, where the children formed groups that made the mosaic pieces for the panels. The groups moved around the class and each group was involved in every part of the process.
