A NOTTINGHAM architect has travelled to South Africa to help build a nursery school.
Samantha Worrall, of CPMG, will help complete the University of Nottingham's Project Limpopo to build the school in Calais in the country. She set off on Sunday to spend two weeks helping a team of second-year architecture students and staff from the university complete the nursery that will provide places for 150 two to six-year-olds from across the Limpopo province.
The team will be extending the original building that was completed in 2011 with the addition of a kitchen and dining facility and more classrooms. Along with staff from the university, Samantha will be acting as a tutor, guiding and assisting students with the construction and providing support.
Before her trip, Samantha said: "I'm really excited to be heading out to Africa and it's great that CPMG are able to support my involvement in this very worthwhile project. As an ex-student of Nottingham University it's a great opportunity for me to be able to use my skills and knowledge to help finish the nursery which will bring huge benefits to the whole community."
