My Project

Our school aims to support the whole student body, and many benefit from a quiet work environment.

This calming space will provide seating, flexible workspaces, and fishy friends to keep our SHARKS (mascot and way of life) calm and focused.

Adding the fish tank will give students needing a focal point for calming a fun way to connect with our ‘school’ of fish. Seating will allow students to swing their legs and sit in comfy areas with soft lighting. Students will be privileged to care for the fish, thus supporting responsibility. Non-allergen animals help promote positive feelings, and caring for their habitat will help students build a sense of community.
