Jerram Falkus Supports Eco Architect Activity at Britannia Village Primary School

As part of our ongoing commitment to the community and sustainable development, Jerram Falkus proudly participated in the ‘World of Work’ events organised by 15billionebp. Our team had the distinct pleasure of serving as judges for an Eco Architect Activity, aimed at Year 5 and Year 6 pupils at Britannia Village Primary School in Newham.

A Day of Innovation and Sustainability

During this enriching afternoon, we interacted with twenty enthusiastic Year 6 students, who presented their unique visions for eco-friendly architecture. These young minds demonstrated exceptional creativity and understanding of sustainable design by showcasing their projects, which included detailed plans and scale models of a shop, a community centre, a hospital, and a hotel. Each design was thoughtfully integrated with eco measures, reflecting a mature grasp of environmental challenges.

The students presented their ideas complete with financial budgets, illustrating their architectural creativity and practical understanding of project management. This hands-on experience was vital for them to grasp the real-world implications of building sustainably.

Feedback and Future Builders

Feedback from our Jerram Falkus judges was met with eager minds, as the students took our suggestions on board to refine their projects. Our judges were particularly impressed with the level of detail and the practical applications of eco-friendly materials and technologies in the students’ designs.

To acknowledge their hard work and dedication to their projects, we gifted each child a small token of appreciation. This gesture was a reward and an encouragement to continue exploring and innovating within the field of sustainable construction.

Words from the Classroom

Nicole Cumberbatch, the class teacher, shared her appreciation for our team’s involvement:

“It was a great afternoon. The volunteers were impressed with the children’s models and presentations. The volunteers were also good with the children – they engaged with them really well and answered all of their questions. Please convey my thanks to all of the volunteers. Thank you for organising this project.”

Looking forward, we are excited to continue our partnership with 15billionebp.
