这是一个由CNC切割胶合板制成的趣味结构，由学生、学校管理人员和志愿者在工作坊活动中共同建造。

This playful structure, made from CNC cut plywood, was developed through workshops with the school children, funded through a charity dinner and built by the school caretaker and some volunteers.

2017年，Highgate小学委托Collective Works对未经充分利用的操场空间进行优化。学校希望为正式的授课以及非正式的娱乐及表演活动提供灵活的空间，并坚信户外教学对于促进学生的积极性和改善身体健康有着十分重要的意义。设计团队在开展设计之前举办了创意工坊以收集孩子们对色彩、形状和景物的看法。当孩子们被问到“为什么在户外学习很重要”时，他们给出了简单的解释：“我们可以奔跑和大叫！”

In 2017 Highgate Primary School asked Collective Works to improve an underutilised space in their playground. The school needed flexible space that could be used for formal learning as well as informal play and performances by the children. The school has a belief in the importance of outdoor learning, understanding that it not only promotes emotional and physical health but also combats under achievement. Collective Works held design hacks with their team before holding an inclusive ideas workshop to gather and incorporate the children’s thoughts on colours, shapes and landscapes. When asked why learning outside is so important they simply explained “we can shout and run too!”

设计完成之后，由于资金的缺乏，项目只好被搁置下来。项目团队凭借其过去的众筹经验，与当地餐厅OmVed Gardens共同策划了一次筹款晚宴。餐厅的主厨Arthur Potts Dawson准备了五道主菜，在当晚筹集到了近3000英镑。得益于本次筹款，该项目也顺利于2018年夏天启动。

Once the design was complete however a lack of funding meant the project went on hold. The practice drew on their experience of crowdfunding and partnered with local organisation, OmVed Gardens to arrange a fundraising dinner and auction. Omved Garden’s Chef, and advocate for the World Food Programme, Arthur Potts Dawson prepared a five course meal and the evening raised nearly £3000. With this much needed injection of funds, building commenced in the summer of 2018.
