01:12 >> Maker space.

01:13 >> With a balcony.

01:14 It's pretty cool.

01:17 >> Tiered seating.

01:18 >> For class.

01:20 And there's chairs and tables for doing your individual work.

01:27 There's cushions you can sit on.

01:28 >> So over here we've got our new learning hub that we've got lots of classes

01:36 and we've got three, four, five and six.

01:40 Five and six are on the top floor and three and four are on the bottom.

01:43 And we've got amazing new learning streets that you can go out

01:47 and do some individual work.

01:49 And we've got some new maker spaces that you can do science and art projects.

01:54 >> That's brilliant.

01:55 What's your favorite part of the upgrades?

01:58 >> We have new kindergarten buildings with maker spaces,

02:04 lots of toilets and colorful wallpapers.

02:08 >> I think the upgrades are really cool.

02:11 I think my favorite part is having the moving walls

02:15 so you can collaborate with other classes.

02:19 >> I think my favorite part is probably the learning street where you can get

02:24 in a group or by yourself and work without the noise and it's more spaced out

02:32 so you have more room for learning.

02:51 >> We're at the end of a five-year program.

02:53 We were in design for a couple of years.

02:55 We've been building for three years.

02:57 We finally have our school back and my students have the learning spaces

03:01 that they all deserve.

03:02 So we're thrilled.

03:03 We're thrilled to be in this wonderful, innovative space.
