British Preparatory Schools: Formal Gardens--Safety


Figure 1.--Children are fascinated by fountains and ponds. The same of course is true od adults, but this seems expecially true for the children. The inclusion of these elements into formal gardens adds great interest for the children. Of course when ever water is involved, some care has to be taken with the younger children. 

Children are fascinated by fountains and ponds. The same of course is true od adults, but this seems expecially true for the children. The inclusion of these elements into formal gardens adds great interest for the children. Of course when ever water is involved, some care has to be taken with the younger children. As a result, the schools have to limit access, especially without adult supervision. The ponds involved are quite shallow, but even in shallow water accidents are possible. This is especially the case the way children run about outdoors.
