A sports hub to offer a broader sports curriculum year round and engage more pupils
This Surrey Heathland Greenbelt site offered an opportunity for the school to enhance their all weather and indoor sports provision without compromising outdoor sports. NVB led the architectural and landscape design of the scheme with the form and configuration being significantly informed by the sensitive setting.
As well as a four court sports hall, the hub provides indoor and outdoor changing along with cafe facilities which have significantly enhanced the capacity for commercial letting.
The school run a "Period Seven" sports programme encouraging mass participation and the hub has had a significant positive impact on its success.
