Ysgol y Faenol, Bangor

Wynne Construction

Wynne Construction was appointed by Gwynedd Council, to extend and refurbish Ysgol y Faenol, Penrhosgarnedd increasing the primary school’s capacity from 186 to 315 pupils and included external works and landscaping.

The Ysgol Y Faenol project started in May 2020 and the workforce and supply chain overcame the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, to continue working in a safe environment with consideration for the wellbeing of all the site employees.

We continued to delivery social value activities and engagement through online virtual presentations with learners from Coleg Menai, a dedicated project Facebook page to keep the community updated, and once the school re-opened ensured that we maintained all social distancing requirements with the staff and pupils during this “live” site project.
