Park Bench - Borel
Project Status: Available
Project Overview
The front office entrance at Borel is currently a sparse area in need of decoration. At the end of each school day, many students sit on the front office stairs while waiting to be picked up, which often impedes the pathway to the front office. To address this, the school proposes the construction of new benches, allowing students to sit comfortably without blocking access.
Two benches will need to be constructed, both designed to be short enough to fit neatly against the blank wall shown in the photo gallery. The benches should also be painted in Borel's school colors, blue, to enhance the school's aesthetic and create a welcoming environment.

Dimensions
- 2 Benches - Combined length needs to fit against the blank wall shown in photo gallery
Materials

- They entire bench must be weather-resistant (e.g. no rusting, no rotting)
Safety Concerns
- Utilization of saws and other sharp instruments
- Utilization of power tools, including power drills
- Exposure to fumes from oil-based paints, wood varnishes, and wood sealers
Desired Construction Time
Construction will need to be completed when students are off-campus, times such as after school hours, weekends, or school breaks are preferable for this activity.
Financial Aid
Depends if there are sufficient school funds for the year
