We went to visit Bancon Homes building site on Tuesday.

First, we met Bob who told us how to stay safe on the building site because it could be a dangerous place. Bob explained about the new Oakland Development and asked us to look at the houses as we were walking to see if we could spot any differences in them.

 

 

Then we visited the Suds Basin and he explained that any extra water could drain away here.

 

Next we met Jamie where they were building flats. He explained about the different trades people who were needed to build houses. We need plumbers, painters, electricians,  joiners, plasterers, slaters and the gardeners.

Finally, we walked round to the new phase of houses. We watched them building terraced houses. We saw a yellow digger which was digging holes and we saw a dumper truck taking muck away.
