Update!

Many apologies for the lack of posts recently.
Due to family illness, our scheduled October opening has been put on hold.
We plan now to open early 2013.
As work gets back underway shortly we'll be sure to keep you updated!!
Thank you,
The Holme Head House Team x

Drawings

We thought it would be nice to share with you the original drawing of the house that was done for our logo, drawn by Roger, a retired architect, now our trained and qualified forest schools instructor. A man of many talents it would seem.

Light

We can't wait for the boarding to be removed from the windows so we can see each room filled with glorious day light, hopefully that will be very soon!

Painting

The ground floor painting is almost complete, just a few little areas left, yet it seems we're still a long way off fully finishing. Today the first floor prep began on the walls, ready for the first coat tomorrow. The sheer size of the space in real life is certainly very daunting! 

This first floor will be where most of the children's work will take place once open. Each room will be zoned into different craft media spaces, with plenty of wall space for work to be displayed once complete it's sure to be a creative hub of activity. 

Entrance and Reception Tiles

Last week the entrance hall and reception room tiles were finally laid, and what a transformation.  

Can't wait for you all to see it :) 

Treasure Collecting

A little teaser of some of the treasure collection waiting to be used! 

Work in Progress

Every inch of the interior is getting a fresh and much needed coat of paint. It's only now, however that we're approaching the half way mark with painting that we've realised the magnitude of this task. 

The building is HUGE, seeing the transformation from day to day however is making it all very exciting. 

Below are some work in progress shots. Right, back to painting!!
