BOTTISHAM VILLAGE COLLEGE
June 2009 PRINCIPAL’S NEWS Building Project The new temporary mobile classrooms are on site and have been in use since 21st April. The old mobiles have now been removed. The building works commenced on Tuesday, 5th May 2009 and it is anticipated that the new teaching block and multi-purpose space will be completed in approximately 12 months. Work will also commence on the extension to the Dining Hall. Following this, the current languages block will be converted into a Locality Base, to include a new Youth Centre and a permanent base for the Children’s Centre. Inevitably, this building programme will create some challenges, but we are confident that by working in partnership with the contractors, any disruption will be kept to a minimum. We remain excited by the benefits that these fantastic facilities will offer to all members of the community.
