Over the last two weeks there has been much activity around the Elgin High School building.  Numerous pits and bore holes have appeared and then been filled in again.  Reports are all good and the construction company are gaining the information they need.  Meanwhile there was a very positive meeting between Hubco, Moray Council, the architects and Balfour Beatty.  Now that the additional money is secure we will be able to finalise the room schedule during the next few days.  This will allow for an initial capacity of 800 pupils.  If we can get this completed quickly then planning for “enabling work” on the site could start.  Hopefully, we will be able to announce the dates of the construction programme in the not too distant future.  It was a very positive planning meeting that brings the reality of a new build for the EHS community one step closer.
