‘Primaries’ installed at Seymour College, Adelaide
In late April 2009 three coloured pencils in primary colours were installed outside the Early Learning Centre at Seymour College’s junior school.
Rick made these three steel pencils, which are 3.5 metres tall and gratefully acknowledges the engineering assistance donated by Peter Cox of Cox Consulting Engineers.
To calculate the actual height of each coloured pencil Rick asked all of the junior school students to measure their red, yellow and blue pencils and then scaled-up the average of those results to make the steel pencils the height that they are.
Contrary to some comments, the colour scheme was not selected in honour of the Adelaide Crows. But it was a fun try anyway…
