New location

A new location was in order as the Tatra Mountains in Poland are to large, and my building would just be engulfed by this landscape, especially since the population of the school is so small, it would be just so impractical to have an almost 10 km bridge with this school in the middle (which is what i was planning). 

New Location: Blue Mountains National Park

Connection to place: I was born and bred in Sydney, so i have been on many trips to and through the Blue Mountains, adventures included exploring with the family for a day, art camps for the week, hiking through for 2 -5 days, camping over the weekend, day bush walks with friends, and the craziest adventure- when a group of friends decided to trench through an old mining tunnel - this was fun, we were crawling through wet clay and water holes for about 2 km through a space no taller than 1m! 

Span: From Leura headland, to Little Switzerland Drive. 1400m, 1.4 km
