Our new classrooms will set us up for the future, to enable us to grow our wonderful school.”

Thanks was given to Howard Prince, Operations Manager for the Marches Academy Trust and Gratton Oakes Construction who managed the project brilliantly. “The project went so smoothly from beginning to end and that is due to the management of Howard and Pete,” said Mrs Reynolds. “Nothing was too much trouble and they delivered the project on time, with limited disruption to our children’s education. The children have been excited to use their new classes this week. The oldest children of the school have been given this honour and they have felt very lucky to have this brilliant new facility”.
