Appeal Update
Swimming Pool Update
March 2012
The works are pushing ahead with the swimming pool development and we are pleased to see that the structure is now firmly in place and the ground works including the final dimensions of the swimming pool itself are now in the end stages of being completed.
The next phase will be having a new insulated liner fitted and the floor surronding the pool area laid down. This new construction comprises of green powder-coated aluminium arches with Perspex glazing. The heated facilities also include indoor girls and boys changing rooms, showers, separate toilets and a staff office. The design will maintain the “lido” feel in summer with the lawn end gable opening completely and the panels on the outdoor changing room side rising to give direct access and an open-air feel. The UV protective roof will provide valuable shade for swimmers. To complete the development the layout of the current pavilion will be improved so as to provide good access and refreshments during other sporting events.
This facility will enable year round swimming for all pupils and it will also enhance what we can provide for the wider school community and parent body. This improved swimming provision will not only support the pupils in the Senior School but also our younger pupils in the Prep and early years, equipping them with a valuable life skill and an excellent grounding.
