On Friday morning P6/7 visited Howden Park Centre. This is part of our ongoing Developing Young Workforce and Participation Friday events – where we are linking with our Community.
We were met there by one of the artists who are exhibiting for the next year in the Exhibition space:
“Drawing on a wealth of photographs, illustrations and models, as well as historical artefacts from the museums and the archival collection of West Lothian, this exhibition explores the identity of Livingston as a thriving New Town – from its beginnings in the 1960s to today.”
We looked at photos and 3D models and discussed the planning that went into the housing areas and design to build communities in Livingston as a new town. This linked in well with our previous discussions about the 1960s as part of our School’s 50th birthday celebrations ! 
We then looked at the Craft cabinets on display which were showcasing local Craft businesses. We discussed their products, prices and display techniques.
We hope to incorporate some of these ideas in our own sales techniques and make use of ideas for our Spring Fayre!
