Winchester House Pre-Prep Extension

As a result of our initial space audit, feasibility study and consultations with the School the Pre-Prep at Winchester House School decided to provided three new larger teaching spaces and to make a fundamental change to the way the site was used.

The project was completed in September 2000. It provides the new classrooms, cloakrooms and wc’s which run along a glazed roofed reception hall. The hallway forms the new school entrance which is accessed form the enlarged school car-park. The new entrance position allows all the space at the rear of the school to become a car-free area, safe and secure for children to play and learn.

The new building is constructed in red brick work under a tiled roof fitting into the existing context. The hallway with its glass ends and roof form a bright new link between the end of the older building and the new extension. Because of the position of the extension it was able to be built during term time and the finishing links carried out through the Summer holiday ready for the Autumn term.
