I thought it would be timely to update you on the considerable building works happening in our school. I acknowledge the work of Stefan Box, Project Manager, and Naylor Love and all of their many contractors. The building works are complex and continuing. Naylors are almost finished re-roofing with historic tiles and staff and the Film Club were fortunate to tour the roof and see the work in progress, including the historic roof structure which was impressive to say the least. 

The counselling, office areas and remaining two Science Lab refurbishments are almost complete. The next major works take place installing the lift by the Science block and there will be new Southern fire doors installed in the hall. Twelve new S-Block toilets, meeting rooms, Learning Support area and universal bathroom, staffroom modifications, S65 Science Lab and prep room, remodelled Library door and ramp, stage lift and fire doors upstairs and down in the hall, hall kitchen, office and sick bay redevelopments are completed. 

Thank you to the students for their patience over this time. They have adjusted their routines to new rooms, new routes, new lunch areas and many unexpected noises and barriers. All of the work is expected to be completed around July- August, with some further work taking place over the Christmas break to finish off. This is an exciting stage in the history of the school with many new facilities coming online in the next weeks and next term.
