Ashburton Borough School (ABS) has approximately 460 pupils’ and 16 teaching spaces. The school buildings are primarily fibre cement and weatherboard timber framed structures which are single story and a mixture of relocatable and permanent structures. These were constructed between 1969-2016.
This is a re-tender of GETS ID 1983907.
Block 11 & 16 are single-story fibre cement relocatable building’s similar to CEBUS buildings, each contain two classrooms, a resource office, cloak rooms and male and female toilets. Block 16 contains an accessible bathroom and toilet. They were constructed in 1970. It is believed that the exterior fibre cement cladding is an ACM (Asbestos Containing Material)
Each block has existing accessible access ramps and in 2016/17 the school created timber decking to the side of each classroom in preparation for the ILE upgrades.

Outcome sought:
ABS are looking to modernise and protect Block 11 by carrying out a full refurbishment on the interior, including:
• Opening the wall between rooms 5 & 6 to create a shared ILE teaching space.
• Replacement of floor coverings.
• Replacement of wall linings.
• New LED lighting.
• Removing the resource area in room 6.
• Removing the toilets.
• Removing the cloak bay and converting into a break out space.
• New sound reducing linings to the ceiling and ceiling insulation.
• New double-glazed joinery to the proposed doors between the teaching spaces and deck.
• New double-glazed window joinery to existing windows. (If funds allow)
• Replacement to exterior fibre cement cladding where directly affected by the works.
• New exterior concrete patio to be used as a teaching space.
ABS are looking to modernise and protect Block 16 by:
• New double-glazed joinery to the proposed doors between the two teaching spaces and deck. These are the same width as the existing windows in each teaching space.
• Replacement to exterior fibre cement cladding where directly affected by the works.

Requirement for Phasing.
The contractor will provide a comprehensive programme outlining the order that they will approach the works, allowing for internal and external works. It is anticipated that the project will begin in September 2018. At this stage the school can relocate affected classrooms in Block 11 to allow the work to proceed. It is anticipated that the work will be staged with Block 11 first and Block 16 following. The scope of works in Block 16 is greatly reduced over Block 11.
