Ysgol Treferthyr, Criccieth

Wynne Construction

Wynne Construction is proud to be delivering the £8m redevelopment of Ysgol Treferthyr in partnership with Gwynedd Council. Nestled in the heart of Criccieth, this forward-thinking new build school exemplifies our commitment to collaborative, sustainable construction and community enrichment.

Designed with the future in mind, the school integrates eco-conscious solutions such as solar panels, air-source heat pumps, and electric car charging infrastructure, helping to pave the way toward a carbon-free educational environment. Beyond its innovative design, the site includes multi-functional learning spaces, sporting facilities, and an inclusive ABC Centre dedicated to supporting children with additional learning needs.

🏗️ Community Impact at the Core

Our project doesn’t just shape buildings—it shapes lives:

74% of the total spend remained in Wales, bolstering regional resilience.

329 construction jobs safeguarded, with 57% of the workforce residing within Wales.

13 apprentices supported across 245 training weeks.

£3,370 donated to grassroots initiatives, from community gardens to school sports sponsorship.

From heritage-sensitive archaeological surveys to diverting 95% of construction waste from landfill, the Ysgol Treferthyr project sets a high standard for responsible construction. Our legacy is built on fostering future-ready infrastructure and resilient communities throughout Wales.
