IT IS HAPPENING AT LAST!

Wednesday 18th November

After a great deal of anticipation and some delays work has finally begun on our new school hall. The construction company Hanem Group, is trying to work in well with the normal operations and activities at the school in order to minimise disruption and impact. We look forward to seeing the building move to completion in 2010 and are very keen to put this school and community resource to good use.
