The project aims to be a caring place, conducive to naivety and discovery, where children can flourish. A home to build, to be authentic, to take care of oneself and others. Each

space of the school is a generator of actions and opportunities promoting the full development of each child through the development of a healthy and active lifestyle. The Lab-École Saguenay will welcome young workers who will take advantage of the context of the courtyard, the gymnasium and the motor development room to move.

The schoolyard allows you to take a break from the day or learn in a different context. It represents the place where every child has the freedom to choose their games and socialize with their peers. The layout of the courtyard will be safe and will promote surveillance. The outdoor and indoor spaces will maintain a strong link through the treatment of thresholds. Thus, the integration of the courtyard and the school will facilitate quick transitions to the outside from the classrooms. The practice of outdoor sports in all seasons will also be encouraged. The courtyard will offer a diversity of areas and surfaces to play and discover. It will also be designed to be complementary to the surrounding parks.
