Construction gets underway

The builders have set up their sheds and fenced off our site for safety. The construction works started by clearing some contaminated earth and the foundations of the old caretaker's house. During half-term they dug a trench to install a drain which joins at the Akiva School.

They removed more earth and prepared the site for piling (a column of wood or steel or concrete that is driven into the ground to provide support for a structure).

Drilling the ground followed to create the piled foundations.
