Planter Boxes - Turnbull
Project Status: Available
Project Overview
Turnbull recently established an outdoor teachers' lounge area on campus and is in need of outdoor furniture to enhance the space shown in the photo gallery below. The teachers have expressed a desire for two wooden planter boxes to be constructed and filled with soil. These planter boxes will be maintained by the school staff, adding greenery to the area and creating a more inviting atmosphere.
The inclusion of these planter boxes will provide a creative and relaxing outlet for teachers, offering a peaceful break from their daily responsibilities.
