This design proposal was made for the school forest plan of Samdeok Primary School and which goals were to realize the programs of making the school forest and removing the school wall. The results of developing programs could enhance the existing conditions of the school from the primary educational state to the sustain-able and friendly nature state.The site is located at 361 Samdeok-3ga, Jung-gu, Daegu and which is about 15,150㎡ and divided into 2 parts of design site of 150m in length, 15m in width respectively. The client suggested some guidelines to develop spaces of environmentally and educationally-friendliness without reducing athletic area. The design concepts are divided into 4 thematic activities such as Open Education, Outdoor Music Activity, Ecological Educational Activity and Social Interrelated Activity. The master plan has two seperated areas which are the main gate area and the back side of the school. The basic plan of the main gate area is characterized by the school forest which has Pine Tree Forest, Rock Shelter, Forest with Pictures and Books, Wild Flower Bed, Gravel Road, Outdoor Music Theater, Forest with Poets and Music, Monumental Sculptures. The back side area has also many various design components such as Decorated Seating Wall with Tree Shades and Bird Nests, Street Mini Park, Small Pond, Shaded Trees and Hedges. This project was constructed from May to June, 2005 as the first year budget of the school. But the limited budget cut down and reduced many parts of the whole design and that is the main problem of this project. The school could solve this problem gaining many kinds of funds from the various sources such as Deagu Metropolitan Office of Education and The P.T.A etc.

The purpose of this theses is to examine the influence of school forests on students' temperament. To collect data, 1,425 students (655 students in experimental group and 710 students in control group) were surveyed during fall semester of 2002. The results of this study indicated that forests in school have significant influence on students temperament. Especially elementary school students showed much stronger influence than middle and high school students.
