The dynamics of how social connection is created or maintained through the physical structures of a school are not fully understood. An exploratory photovoice project was undertaken in a rural high school. Students took photos and spoke to what they felt the photos showed about the school's social environment. The findings showed that the school was segmented into clear territories, enshrining particular types of power, welcoming some students and alienating others. Being 'in' or 'out' was associated with cliques known to gather in particular places. Having a car maintained what the students called 'a divide'. A confronting reality about school life was surfaced that standard school connection and social network questionnaires miss. A display of the photos at the school confirmed the findings and led to actions to address the issues raised. Thus the strategy offers unique insights and an opportunity to create tailored, place-focused ways to make the schools more welcoming.
