The new Art & Design Centre has been
built in the area of the playground, where the sheds used to be.
It provides a 70sq. metre, purpose built facility for Art &
Technology, with two courtyards for outdoor work and “big art”
and computer facilities to link ICT with Art & Design.
There
are new storage facilities for the School Association and the
whole building is linked to the main building by a covered
walkway. The building provides superb facilities for both
curricular and extra curricular work, the breakfast club and is
available for Community use outside the school day.
We
already have a number of clubs and societies who have shown real
interest in using the new centre and we aim for Hampton Hill
Junior School to have an even more significant role within the
community.
The
second part of the project was to completely redecorate, carpet
and refurbish the twelve classrooms, since we will not be
undertaking “wet art” in those rooms. The carpets and new
furniture has significantly improved the whole school
environment and allowed us to make much better use of the space
that we have.
We
raised funds for this new development through grants and our
Ebay site and other fundraising exploits, donations and
activities.
