YouTube Videos of Amesbury School design

Our architect has put together two YouTube videos of what the school will look like when it is finished.  The videos incorporate the colour palette that we have chosen for the interiors, but the furniture is indicative only because we have not chosen any furniture yet.

The main video is about 6 minutes:

The shorter version is about 2 minutes:

We hope you enjoy these videos.

Construction Progressing Well

Although we are now in the middle of winter, construction of Amesbury School is still progressing well.   The builders are doing a fantastic job in what can only be described as appalling conditions.  Some days there are 30 builders out there, even when it's raining and very cold.  We thank them for their hard work.

The framing for the classroom block is up and the roof is going on this week.




The foundations for the hall and admin block are being laid in three sections. The second section went down today.  Parts of the framing will be erected next week.







The seed has been laid on the football field and we can finally see green grass emerging.  Roll on summer when we can play on the fields after dinner!!
