Construction work has officially started on a new £9m build at Rowandale Integrated Primary School in Moira on which Bennett Freehill is providing Mechanical and Electrical Engineering design services.
The new 14-classroom state-of-the-art school building designed to BREEAM for energy conservation and sustainability will provide a modern primary school with 14 classrooms and nursery unit accommodating over 340 pupils.
Welcoming the start of the project at a sod cutting ceremony, Education Minister Paul Givan said:
“Today marks the start of an exciting new era for Rowandale Integrated Primary school as work officially begins on their new school build. The significance of this £9million investment will be reflected in the many benefits it will deliver for pupils, school staff and local families. This major project will provide modern new facilities which will help to create a positive learning environment for young people.”
Construction on the site began in January 2024 and is due to be completed in late summer 2025.
