Summer 2019

What we have done: 

• Agreed a contract with Sewell Construction to build the new centre
• Finalised the design and resolved outstanding design questions and queries
• Worked through planning and legal requirements
• Started on site in June 2019
• The same contractor will complete the refurbishment and extension of Lincoln Court Older person’s accommodation (next door to the new centre) this will reduce the construction impact on the school and local community

 

What we plan to do next:

• Keep local community up to date on progress and the construction plan. So everyone is aware of what will happen and when
• Involve Hob Moor Oaks school children with developing artwork, signs and laying the first brick
• Children’s construction work shops in Hob Moor school from Sewell Construction
• Start work to develop the playing fields at the back of Hob Moor School. This will take place and finished in the summer holidays of 2019
• Work with services for disabled children to ensure they are ready of the new building in summer 2020
