Crockham Primary School/
New Hall Takes Shape
The new extension has been designed to be as self-contained as possible, so that it is directly part of the existing school building during the day, but in the evenings can be used by the local community or others.
The hall will be a multifunctional space, large enough for 140 pupils to come together for collective worship and eating. It will also be used for PE classes, after-school clubs and evening meetings.
