22 days in counting…

ag6 is almost (yes, almost) ready!

The top two floors are nearly complete and we are just putting the final touches into place.

Downstairs, the science labs are looking very swish and the kitchen is something Jamie Oliver would be proud to cook in!

We are still waiting for the final decoration of the reception, the main stairwell, nursery and lower storey’s.

The building even has its name fixed on the side in the ag6 three colours of blue. And it’s even lit up at night so you can see it from various points around the area. It really does look pretty.

It’s all hands on deck here, we are working every hour god sends over the next three weeks to get the project finished, as we promised.

There’s 22 days to go…

New Year New School

Well, it’s been a very hectic week catching up on the work we’ve not managed to complete because of the bad weather.

Internally, we are making lots of progress with the final finishes such as painting, and moving furniture into place.

Externally, we’ve moved the cabins so we can finish the outside area there, and we are hoping to work on the remaining tarmacing over the next couple of weeks.

We will be working many late nights over the next couple of weeks to get both the inside and outside finished in time for the official hand over to the school at the end of January.

OH SNOW!

It’s like a winter wonderland up here at ag6.

We’re progressing with everything we can internally but any work on the ring road is being put on hold until the snow thaws.

Looks like we’re in for a white white Christmas.

All the best Rossendale! See you in the New Year.

One week until Christmas.

All systems go up at ag6! The main kitchen has been installed and water is in the process of being linked up.

More and more furniture is being brought into the building and put in its place starting with the upper levels first.

Over the next week or so we are also fitting the lavatories and starting to kit out the nursery.

The outer ring road and new roundabout will also be tarmacked.

Our team will be working over the Christmas period to make sure all the work stays on track.

It’s the last school day of the year for the pupils today. We wish them all a very Merry Christmas!

Snow snow go away!

We’ve been battling through the extreme weather conditions on site, it’s been very cold and we’ve all had to wrap–up and crack on with things.

We are getting on with the plastering, painting and floor finishes as best we can, and hope to progress with as much decoration as possible.

Under-floor heating is all up and running and we’re also trying to get as much furniture into the building.

The final road works are being completed once the school closes for Christmas.

Thankfully, we’re also putting heating into the building today – hurray!

New pictures!
