Concept• Bio dome
– Two zones: Rainforest and Savannah– Natural fauna and flora, growing exotic fruits and vegetables
• Educational Benefit– Diversity of Eco-systems– Sustainability– Active participation by students
• Community Cohesion– Opportunity to improve their knowledge and experience of growing with their counterparts
from around the world– Open to other schools
• Sustainable build– Reduce carbon footprint of school– Self-sufficiency, use of produce in school
• Links to original site usage– Retaining pool area for ‘native lakes’– Will become “a thing of beauty for generations of Fair Field children“

Assumptions• Build
– Use existing structure wherever possible to keep cost low and minimise planning issues, with existing outer walls as the outside boundary of the building.
– Any rubble recycled for infill and recycled materials used for build where possible• Maintenance
– Low running cost, stable micro environment– Use of heat exchangers and solar panels will minimise running cost
• Funding– Cost focused on higher capital and lower running cost– Grants and sponsorship available
• Education– Create an innovative and valuable learning resource for pupils– As a minimum, suitable for the curriculum for year 3 to year 6
• Children– Involved in maintenance and up-keep– Children to influence final design
• Health & Safety– Create a safe and secure learning environment for children of all ages– Inclusive and accessible environment
