Photinia 'Red Robin' looks attractive, if you like something different.

I want to plant a new hedge in my back garden and am having problems
deciding what to go for. I have seen an evergreen on my travels that
looks like a Laurel but has lighter green, waxy leaves. I love the
laurel, but have the problem that I don't want to kill next door's
children when they decide to chew on a leaf or two! I have a distance
of about 100m to plant.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
