WAREHOUSE CONVERTED TO A TEMPORARY NATIONAL SCHOOL WITH ALL FITTINGS AND WORKS

With overcrowded schools and ever-shrinking capital budgets, more and more school districts are turning to the existing building stock for their next school expansion project. Warehouses are being transformed into high-performance learning spaces at a fraction of the cost and time required to build classrooms from the ground up.
But as leading industry experts will attest, these projects can be considerably more challenging than designing and building from scratch. Ollie Kenny Ltd has proved that they have all capabilities to develop such projects. Arcadia National School is a testimony of their success.
