Creating the Ultimate learning environment.

This week we have been thinking about the types of learning spaces and furniture that helps us to learn the best. We will all be designing a model of our ideas so we can share these with you when we have finished. Some of us will be heading into Richmond and Nelson to go and have a look at some furniture and see if it will fit in with our ideas.
