New School

I cannot forebear to tell where we are in our exciting building project. Many will have noticed the web of steelwork arising to overlook the Gransha Road and this will, at last, broadcast to the community the scale of the new building. The steelwork will be complete by the end of the month and we may see the roof on before Christmas. On a recent visit to the site, I took childish pleasure in having my photograph taken in the space where my study will be. One colleague mischievously expressed the hope that the new open door policy would still be in evidence after we have moved in.

We will move in February 2013, only seventeen months away. Detailed planning has been going on for some time, given both impetus, and even urgency, as the move becomes increasingly and incredibly imminent.
