Mark is a high school teacher, teaching hospitality and food technology (is a qualified chef as well) and away from work he loves renovating! Jasmine is a primary school teacher, currently on maternity leave. She enjoys researching renovation ideas that she can make her husband build/do and also likes to dance, bake sweet things and spend time with her kids.

The family would like to landscape part of their large backyard for the kids to play in. At present the yards is basically a big paddock with grass, with kids toys scattered all over it! It is a blank canvas!

• Build a path around the play area
• Create an outdoor seating area for kids –tree stumps as stools
