Sounds great - I’m working today but will check out the TED talk later.

I'm happy to chat to St Aidan's

I can talk to Stroud Green Primary where my children are.

I guess we'll need to organise an particular approach to the subject.

It would probably be a good way of recruiting adult (parent) members too.

I think these Islington schools are in our area - primaries: Poole's Park, Ambler and Christ the King - and secondary: Arts and Media - and several preschools and nurseries

Noice, I feel if we get a few schools (and by proxy) parents involved, then it would be really helpful - we've got three good ones in our catchment - St Aidan's, Stroud Green and Parkwood that I know about - are there any on the Islington side of things?

I'm happy to chat to St Aidan's

I just saw this video from TED Talks, I think it really expresses all the things that I have thought were missing from local planning in FP for a long time!

I think it would be excellent to include children from local schools. My children just watched it with me and are super-excited by the idea and are already re-designing Finsbury Park.
