Work has begun on The Lawns at Cribbs Causeway

Work on the sports facilities at The Lawns at Cribbs Causeway, is now underway!

We purchased the site in 2017 for student use, with a continued emphasis on community access. Verde Recreo, a local firm of specialists in sports design and construction were appointed recently, who, along with award-winning architects, O’Leary Goss, are working hard to realise our vision for the sports site.

Headteacher Mr Dwyer said, “After a year that has asked much from all members of our community and seen us pause and reflect on the best way to realise our ambitions with this project, we are excited to be able to look to the horizon. These kind of facilities will benefit all students across the Junior, Senior and Sixth Form at Redmaids’ High for many years to come.”

Phase one will primarily focus on the creation of a brand-new international hockey federation standard pitch, ready for use for at the start of the 21/22 academic year.

Ms Maggs, Director of Sport has been leading the school’s sports teams to fantastic achievements across all sports, so the new facility means even more opportunities for Redmaid's High students to excel in sport. 

James Jenkins, Director of Verde Recreo said, “After getting to know the school, we are delighted to have assisted in bringing this project to life. We can’t wait to see the next generation grow and develop on this superb facility”.

We are working closely with Cribbs Sports and Social Club who are remaining on site as well as Cribbs FC who are continuing to use The Lawns as their home site.

Further phases will see a new sports pavilion, netball courts and athletics provision, and we're looking forward to continuing to share progress as the work goes on.
