Comments: Mission Heights School is a brand new primary & junior school commissioned by the Ministry of Education. To encourage students to ride bikes in lieu of motorised transport, the school required a functional bike shed. Using the modular County Canopy system, we designed a simple barrel vault structure with which to provide all weather shelter for students bikes.
