Mrs Potter from WithyWillow has visited OPA a few times to work with pupils on creating a more enclosed feeling to our new outdoor classroom by building the original fence up with shapes made from woven willow. 

The arch is really starting to bloom and pupils love checking in with this daily. 

We still have some living willow to craft with which is planted in a pot at the moment, ready to be transformed into a new feature by pupils. 

Keep an eye out for this in the coming weeks!
