There is more good news from the two Maharishi Free Schools which are under development now in the UK. The larger of the two, a school which would potentially open in London, has been offered a large site to use. In addition, the school is getting along well with the local community.

The site in London is a flat, large piece of land—about five acres or two hectares, said Dr Peter Warburton, Chairman of Maharishi Foundation UK. There is an existing school building already on the site; in addition to that, the government will build a new building for the Maharishi Free School, designed according to Vastu architecture principles.

The site is lovely, in a central area of London, yet it is surrounded by trees and removed from much of the city noise.

A news article was recently published about the potential new school in London and its burgeoning relationship with the local community.

The article is titled: 'Free school vows to save youth club'.

Local people were delighted to know that once the school is established, the intention is to open it up in the evenings and on weekends for meetings and educational activities, including youth groups.

This intention means a popular local youth club which has been using the existing school would be able to use the new school for its meetings. The local vicar was especially pleased to hear this.

Many involved in the school take this as yet another indication that the Maharishi Free School is seamlessly integrating into the neighborhood. Many residents appear to see the school's establishment in the area as a good thing for the local community.
