A Splash of Seaford
Created by: Seaford Hopscotch
Location: Stanley Deason Leisure Centre
Our bench was inspired by the many visits our Hopscotch Explorers have enjoyed to Seaford Beach. We wanted to capture some of the things the children love most about our local area, from the colourful beach huts and beautiful coastline to the bright blue skies above.
The pebbles on the beach have been created using the children’s fingerprints. Just like the real pebbles you find along Seaford Beach, no two are the same. It’s a simple way of celebrating that every child is unique and plays an important part in our nursery community.
