Haydon School, St Mary's Performance Arts Ctr Completed

In accordance with the planned programme the Performing Arts Centre at Haydon School has been successfully handed over to the client. The project which had a phased completion schedule was partially handed over at the beginning of the 2013/14 School term.

The scheme completes Phase 1 of the works to join the St Mary's and St Nicholas' buildings together. Currently students can be required to travel up to 300m between classes due to buildings being detached. Connecting buildings built in 50 with others built in the 70's and 90's creates its own special set of parameters. Special attention is needed when considering existing Building Reg, insulation and access standards.

The completed building boasts recording studios, music rooms and a performance space that have been constructed to the highest standards.
