Garden Party at the Garden of Dreams.

You know when your project is a success when:

A) Three unmotivated teachers working with you all resign their posts.

B) The goal posts move 5 times, but you still score.

C) You avoid injuries to pupils when using heavy hand tools and power tools.

D) You ask the school librarian if you can display the design work done on the project in the library to the whole school and they phone reception and request 2 cartakers and head staff to act as a SWAT team to eject you from the premises

E) Your work is not vandalised, but targeted by art theives.

F) One of your lessons causes a full scale riot

G) The Caretaker is on your side

H) A posse of students are sent out to find and bring you back when you’re wandering around the school field talking on your mobile phone, when you hadn’t realised you were supposed to be making a speech and thanking everyone for their help at the celebration garden party.

I) The kids you worked with can’t believe your not coming back.

J) Your fellow artist (Pete) working with you on the project tells the staff ‘Art is about ideas, and design is about realising them’.

K) Finaly; the deputy head invites you to play for their school staff cricket 11.
