The Senior School Learning Studios and offices are taking shape! The interior wall partitions are up on the first and second floor and the drywall has been installed. Work on the third floor continues, with wall partitions and drywall to be installed any day now. Mechanical and electrical systems have been installed with the exception of the finishing touches.

Work on the Fitness Centre is progressing at a steady pace.  The roof and windows are currently being installed and the unique shape with the glass façade of the Fitness Centre is a sight to see!
