The dial is in the garden to the south of the school. It is a circular approximation to an elliptical analemmatic dial with star-like hour-dividing rays from the centre. These terminate in plaques of scenes from the past millennium, with children’s signatures in the rays. FThere are footprints to a date scale which appears to be approximate. The dial shows 4am to 8pm in hours, using XII and IIII, the numerals being incised into the stone as laid.
