As a young child, growing up by the sea in Salcombe, Devon, I had no idea how lucky I was.
From my classroom, I could see the sea reflecting the sun on the ceiling, although it took me years to realise what this was! Out of the window we could see the estuary and the boats and a view up South Pool Creek (see photo).
We just took it all for granted. As young children we just assumed everybody has something similar. To us, it was the normal.
I remember just before leaving the junior school walking all over town doing some sort of project. Imagine this today! Firstly the school would have to do a risk assessment, then get the parents written permission. It just would not happen!
