  • Nicholas Hare Architects' Schools Brochure
    Schools www.nicholashare.co.uk 3 Barnsbury Square London N1 1JL Telephone 020 7619 1670 Fax 020 7619 1671 Nicholas Hare Architects was formed in 1977. The practice became a Limited Liability Partnership in 2004. At present we are 73 people, 62 of whom are architects, handling a wide range of projects. Most of our commissions have come through recommendations from previous clients, though the practice’s reputation has been enhanced by success in architectural competitions for public buildings. The strength of the practice stems from its combination of en- ergy and inventiveness with a professional sense of responsibility to clients. The commitment to excellence and thoroughness in design is matched by the importance attached to the efficient and cost-conscious running of contracts: we have a wide experience of working with traditional forms of contract as well as with management contracts, construction management and 2-stage collaborative contracts. We have a history of achieving good value for our clients, through attention to detail and the pursuit of good quality and low maintenance, particularly in the building envelope: many of the buildings designed by the practice have cost much less than their quality would suggest. Our service responds to the needs of clients, ranging from complete building projects including project management to strategic planning and consultancy. Our record of satisfied cli- ents and second and third commissions is testimony to the care devoted to understanding and responding to the real needs of our clients, as well as producing buildings which give pleasure to those who use them. Schools August 2011 2 Haybridge High School, Hagley, Worcestershire Over 30 years NHA has built a balanced portfolio of projects, Primary schools Ifield Community College, West Sussex but the most consistent thread is of buildings for education.

  • Calendar • 26-30/10 – Half Term • 30/11/15 – INSET
    Calendar 26-30/10 – Half Term News Edition 143 30/11/15 – INSET Day Monday 5h October 2015 Welcome to Edition 143 Dear All It has been a busy start to the school year for our students. Year 11 have participated in a careers fair which enabled them to find out more information about the choices open to them next September; there is further information about open evenings for colleges later in the newsletter. On the sporting field, the Year 8 Rugby team have had a very successful start to the year, with a resounding 47-19 victory over Honywood and Year 11 continued this success off the field, winning the Gosfield Enterprise challenge. Over the last two weeks we have hosted a variety of events for the parents of Year 6 students, including visits to primary schools. The feedback from all of these events has been extremely complimentary about the behaviour and attitude of our students. Thank you to all those students who have helped at one of these events. As the weather begins to turn, can I ask that you encourage your son or daughter to bring their coat with them on rainy days, and store them in their lockers, as this will help ensure they arrive at school ready to learn. Kind regards Elizabeth Robinson Headteacher Open Events Tabor Academy recently held several open events for the local community. Firstly, our annual Open Evening, opening our doors to existing and prospective families. It was a fantastic opportunity for the parents of our prospective Year 6 students to see the school in action and the amazing opportunities we have to offer.
