year 6 went to the site where the new school is being built.When we arrived we were met by the site manager Rob.We were given saftey equipment of hard hats and yellow vests we were also given some gloves becuuse we needed protection from the cement which can burn .At the beginning we were given a saftey talk. Then Rob showed us how to lay some bricks every body got a go. After we had some questions to ask rob they were mainly about how green the new school is going to be. We asked him how many bricks they were using and he replied "we are using 52 000 bricks to build the whole school." We also asked him how much cement they were using and he replied "we are using 44 000 tones of cement." We saw the frame for the hall and open flat fields. we asked him what happened to the wild life that was nesting on the grounds he replied " we had to move a slow worm family and some insects.We recorded our conversation with rob and have all the answers on our new digital recorder.

Hi Anna, This was a very helpful report, I wondered what it felt like going to the building site. I am also interested in what you have learnt about eniromentally sound building methods and materials.
