Building a wall

Druk White Lotus School is in the final phase of constructing facilities to take students from Nursery through Secondary (High School) level, class 10 (UK 'GCSE' level; age 16+). 

a “just in time” construction delivery system

Additional classrooms, laboratories and other facilities have been constructed each year to facilitate the on-going education of the students already enrolled as they move up the school – a “just in time” construction delivery system. We constantly need to keep ahead of the students' needs.

2012 saw the completion of the defensive measures to protect the school from any future mud slides, plus two additional Secondary School classrooms and the North block of Residence 4.

The current priorities for 2013 are: (1) to construct the South block of Residence 4, to accommodate remote area students, (2) to complete two IT-enabled classrooms, (3) build a block of latrines, (4) build foundations ready for the 2014 construction season.

In 2014 we want to build the final classroom and a staff room, a dining hall and kitchen extension, upgrade the central courtyard, landscape the site and create sports facilities, and to create the associated infrastructure. In the future there may be an Auditorium/Library that will lie at the very heart of the school (please see the computer simulation below of the planned Auditorium/Library).
