STEEL IS GOING UP...
Hooray...
This is the top two floors of the lift shaft showing.
We also went along to a meeting about exactly how our special roof with all the plants and things will be done. Here you can see Nigel (from Sheffield University on the left and Phil Stuart (Quantity Surveyor from Kier-contractor). We sat next to the biscuits!
Nigel is going to design all the planting for the roof and find all the special bio-diverse roof material for the plants to grow in. Together with some of his students he will lay it all out and plant it. More than 1000 square metres of it...that's a lot!
He was also talking about some wonderful 'wildlife apartments' we could make to encourage birds and other things to come and live near our new school, but maybe more about that later.
