This wall was located in the middle of the main school courtyard – and after a year or so of having school children running over the wall every day and enjoying it very much, it was time for little facelift and a new, brighter colour.

This time a thick lime stucco was again applied just to the deeper cracks and patches that had been picked off over time, with some bondcrete added for extra strength – and the red oxide for a deeper colour.

A few weeks later we returned to do an overall colour-wash with the red oxide – it came up looking very striking.
