Seamount College Phase 2
We are delighted to see our Seamount College Phase 2 project now nearing completion.
An earlier Phase I extension delivered in Dec 2021 comprised a two storey extension to the existing school with new classroom, admin & staff accommodation as well as a new secondary entrance and courtyard.
The larger Phase 2 now completes the design, providing eight further mainstream classrooms, new specialist technology, science, home economics & art rooms, admin accommodation, new main entrance & vehicular drop off area around a central courtyard.
Sustainability criteria to the project includes a ‘fabric first’ approach through a highly insulated & airtight building envelope, photovoltaic roof panels, rain water harvesting system (providing for the re-use of rainwater throughout the building) high efficiency bathroom fittings for overall reduction of mains water usage, high SRI(Solar Reflective index) roofing & part hardscaping to reduce global ‘heat island’ effect, low energy movement/ambient sensored LED lighting throughout to minimise energy use & a building management system (BMS) to optimize energy usage through the building.
