Roll Growth Classrooms
This project involves two new Roll Growth funded classrooms and some additional SPG funding.
In some areas of Auckland the school rolls are growing each year and many school sites have very little
spare building space.
This was the case here so it was decided to re-locate an existing class
to a better position, and build additional space, which included teachers resource space, a computer room
and two classrooms as well as an improved out door connection to a new court yard.

1:15/1:18 Teacher Ratio Classrooms
Carew Projects is currently involved with several primary schools who have received additional teacher/pupil
ratio funding. With our assistance each school has decided on various solutions to best fit the school's
situation.
We are working with some schools to establish full sized re-locatable classrooms and others to
re-allocate and refurbish various existing spaces within the school, to satisfy the need for extra teaching
spaces.

elements reveiwed in year three to maintain the school's access to the Ministry's capital

Fire Damage Re-instatement
Carew Projects was called in after over night fire damage to a local school hall.
After initially
securing the building for the long weekend and to limit any further possible property
damage we developed the scope of works and tender package to seek main contractors
for the refurbishment works.
The hall had split Ministry of Education and Board of Trustee
ownership effectively two insurance companies were involved.
The project is now complete and the school is now enjoying using their refurbished 1960's Hall.
