Flora and Natural landscaping



Transportation seems to be a key issue when looking at this school site. With congestion reaching the entire road fronting the school, it has become evident that a new system needs to be established. Oue design group decided that a drop off pick up area needs to be developed going into the so, so as to stop back log at the top.




Only breifly investigatng the nature of the local flora, it becomes obvious to my group members and I that simple but diverse landscaping can be a tool that unifies the entire school setting, furthermore it it can diversify as an outdoor learning area.





Looking then at planting, the use of native flora is one way of tying the site with the area of Torquay
