OFA welcomed office first baby, Leah.
The Claire Harris Hall at the Hope and Faith School in Ng’ombe, Lusaka, Zambia is nearing completion. Ng’ombe is a former cattle ranch now home to 65,000 people and the hall will give much-needed teaching, dining and sports facilities for the growing school. Energy is generated by PV’s on the roof which will give a degree of resilience for the school in an area where power outages are frequent. We are really pleased to have been able to help out with drafting and liaison with the team in Lusaka and are delighted to see the opening date is planned for later this year with a grand opening in September by the President of Zambia.
Yesterday, OFA had a chance for a visit and site tour to the Castle Hill House Redevelopment at St Peter’s College. The session was insightful and very interesting to look at the implementation of Passivhaus on site!
This week OFA had the pleasure of making a day trip to a beautiful college based in the south of England. Although it was a bit chilly, but the views and the beautiful architecture made up for it.
