When some teachers went to Auckland last year we visited two of these schools. CORE has now put videos of them on their website ( http://edtalks.org/channel/modern-learning-environments ) under the EDtalks section. They are well worth a watch when you have ten minutes. Look at what the children and the teachers are doing in the background, and what the speakers are saying as they are interviewed. Look at the furniture solutions and how the spaces are being used. Think about how you can trial some of this in your homebase / teaching environment.
Here are the links for the videos
