Work is progressing well following the ‘topping out’ ceremony on 21st September, as the new Performing Arts Building takes shape at our project Channing School, in collaboration with Buckley Gray Yeoman. The new steel structure with CLT roof will provide a 300-seat auditorium and performance space along with drama-teaching areas, and follows the earlier completion of a new Sixth-form Centre and Sports Hall at the school.
The new steel and CLT structure was erected in just over one week during the summer holidays to ensure that the term-time running of the school was not affected by the major structural works. The project is currently on track for completion in April 2017.
