18 May 2016 - Halve way through week 66

I normally wait until the end of the week but so much has happened over the last few days I felt it was important to have an update!


  • Walls and ceilings are finished in the entrance, cafe, nursery and toilets
  • All lights are fitted in these areas
  • Door frames are in for these areas too (and doors in some cases)
  • Floors are in the toilets
  • Cubicles are built in toilets and sanitary ware is partially fitted
  • Main Auditorium walls are painted, second coat going on tomorrow
  • Main Auditorium wall lights are fitted and working
  • Main Auditorium ceiling has been started
  • Air conditioning units have been fitted
  • Kitchen walls and ceiling are finished
So, as you can see... a busy couple of weeks!!

8 May 2016 - End of week 64

The building continues to change on a daily basis both inside and out with work internally progressing at a rapid pace.  We have electricity now which has allowed the generator to finally be retired and the site is surprisingly quiet.

The outside has been cleared right the way round in preparation for the finishing surface to be laid and the inside has transformed again in two weeks with the main hall getting it's plasterboard coat (nearly 500 plasterboards installed in a week!).

The wall connecting the main auditorium to the building has also been lined with special sound boards to prevent sounds (and fire) spreading into the main building.

Lights are being fitted next week and the plastering will start on the main hall.  It's taking shape fast.
