Building Their Future.

Our long awaited building project finally commenced on the 19th August 2024. After many delays it was a joy to see the hoardings going up on that lovely summers day. Since then the building contractors have been extremely busy clearing the grounds, demolishing the old music cabin and this week removing the fire escape from the main building. The site has already changed dramatically within a month and we are so excited and hopeful that the next 11 months will be just as productive.

Last Friday a few children joined our Head Teacher Mrs Foulger, our Business Manager Mrs Handy, our Deputy Head Miss O’Sullivan, our new Director of Studies Mrs Bishop and our Site Manager Mr King for the first official ‘dig’. Now is where the real work begins and we can really see how the land is taking shape. As the weeks progress it will become easier to visualise how the new building will slot in and join Justin Hall and we will be here to bring you regular updates. It’s been a noisy week but the children have been terrific at not letting it disturb their learning.

It’s so important to us as a school that we involve the children in this project as together we are building their future.
