Mud Sofa's Are Us!

Yet another one! This time it was constructed at Ashton Under Hill pre-school play group. Regular visitors to our blog will know that we've been working closely with the group - developing their outside space to play (see blog entries Monday, 23 March 2009 & Thursday, 12 March 2009 ).

Family & friends of the staff and children dropped by during the day for pizza, sausage rolls and a shed load of muck spreading!

This bench had a distinctly modern feel - a contemporary, curved design - (I'm sure there must be an appropriate clay inspired acronym for DFS!) We all finished just in time before the heavens opened, and generously watered the grass seed we had sewn into the surface.

The whole area looks fantastic - mud pit, mud screen, marble run, and finally a sofa. A real testament to the enthusiasm, vision and hard work of the staff, children and parents - well done Mirka and Ruth!
