Although we know that Storm Goretti is forecast to pass by midnight tonight, we are also aware that the high winds have already caused significant damage across Cornwall, with many homes and businesses now without power.

We need to make sure that it is safe to open our site tomorrow morning before we bring staff and pupils back in, and delaying opening will give us the opportunity to do this safely, in daylight.

The students recently took part in a workshop about vertical planting, where they explored climbing plants and learnt about how, if you can't plant horizontally, you can always go vertically! They helped to trace and cut out some leaf shapes using waste material donated by SKB sails. 

The leaves were then sewn onto sail shades by local designer Elinor Voisin to be suspended over the pergola outside the science lab on the new building. 

Designer Elinor also made the wonderful new planter that was installed outside the classrooms. The planter will be planted up in September with climbing plants that will grow up and over the pergola. There will also be room for seasonal planting. We look forward to seeing what is chosen!
