This school's place in the world.

Background to mural creation:
The mural was created to give a sense of connectedness and purpose to where the school is.  The mural design starts with a focus on the school and progresses to a focus on the world.  Children, staff and community were all involved in this massive and exciting project.  In a very personal touch, the back of each mural piece is decorated with children's handprints.
