The frieze, above the entrance to the school, has five decorative panels, each one framed by stone mullions continuing those of the windows above. Four of the panels show individual, classically draped female figures, while the centre panel shows two female figures. The figures dance amidst vines, flowers and fruits, celebrating the fertility of nature.
