Description
  • The linear courtyard is designed with islands of planted areas. These constitute 45% of the entire courtyard.
  • Several trees have been planted. The vegetation is a mix of perennial and deciduous species.
  • The two large planted “islands” at the center provide a glimpse of biodiversity to the students
  • The educational garden has planting containers suitable for small children.
  • The courtyard is divided into various zones based on the level of activity,
  • There is a quiet area amidst trees which has been provided with outdoor timber furniture and chalkboards.
  • At a quiet corner lies the outdoor classroom with a log amphitheater.
  • The central planted area accommodates active play. It has a mound with climbing logs and a slide.
  • A gabion wall acts as a barrier between the sports field and the active play area.
  • The paved area is finished with a light colored asphalt to increase reflectance and reduce heat-island effect. Games like hopscotch and a bicycle track have been marked.
