As we begin a new inquiry into how we organise ourselves we have been exploring our understanding of wants and needs.

We are finding out that it is not quite as simple as you might first think; what we need to survive on a desert island is a different to what we need to be happy and healthy at home in Sohar.


It was easy to choose lots of things for a dream bedroom – we all want to dream!

What about friends, teddy bears and love? Wants or needs?

What about where we live? We need shelter to survive but we think we need a family too!
