You might think that blue is one of Allenby’s school colours with all of the blue that is now visible within the construction area. The new walls on the south side are being prepared for back filling. That means that the hill of soil will be on the move soon – we hope! If blue […]
It is amazing that the school is able to run our usual seasonal outdoor programming despite the construction zone. This week, Mr. G and Mr. Leaney will complete all of the tryouts for Track and Field using the smaller Allenby schoolyard. The students don’t seem to mind and have made a huge effort to do […]
Although the block walls are continuing to rise, the rain has slowed the construction slightly this week. We are all hoping for sunny weather to come and stay. For any questions on the build, please email communications@allenbyparents.com.

Due to the time sensitivity of the concrete work, the concrete trucks will need to enter the building site upon arrival. Where possible, workers will avoid busy times for the […]
