Project description
The municipal primary school is currently housed in antiquated buildings alongside the busy N9 road in Melle. The local authority wants to relocate the school to a nearby school site that will soon be vacated. This future site (Vossenstraat-Beekstraat-Spoorlaan) is very spacious and is in a residential area close to the village centre. All the existing school buildings will be demolished, except for the sports hall, which will be renovated. There are numerous standard trees on the site as well as a plot of grass. The local authority wants to build a compact and functional new school for 350 children on the site, on a scale suited to all its users (children, staff and parents), with nursery classrooms, primary school classrooms, rooms for individual guidance and care consultation, a computer room, classrooms for the different religions, a staff meeting room, dining room, kitchen, playroom for infants, toilets, storerooms and technical rooms. In addition, the local authority wants the school to provide before- and after-school care, holiday care, facilities for a music school and community school, outdoor play areas, functional green zones, bicycle storage, pedestrian and bicycle access and a visitor’s car park on the periphery. In addition to the school, the site will also hold a gymnasium linked to the existing sports hall and a crèche, possibly in combination with small-scale housing. These latter buildings are not part of the architectural brief. The local authority has commissioned the Veneco inter-municipal company to draw up a master-plan for the whole site. Together with the project definition, this master-plan will form the framework within which the architects can design the school. The sum to be invested (for study and construction) is 6,000,000 euro including VAT. The overall fee (including stability and technical installations) is set at between min. 8.05% and max. 11%.
