WORK on the new Les Beaucamps High School will start just six weeks from today if the States approves spending £36.8m.

The Education Department is appealing to deputies to approve money for the project at the meeting at the end of November.

If they do, building is due to start seven days later. Deputy Minister Tony Spruce was confident the department would get the money.

‘I would be amazed if the Assembly turned it down,’ he said.

What’s with Tony on all these press articles lately? Planning to use kids and this building for an incinerator?

Just maybe enough deputies will recall the poposed building will have a foot print that rapes yet more precious green field.
Perhaps one could always hope that the plans had been revised and they were not going to develop on more green field.
Though with Spruce involved I sadly doubt it.
