My Department has sought an update from the Consultant Architect working on the major building project to which the Deputy refers and understands that there is a low wall retaining a planter for shrubs and plants opposite the blank gable to classrooms 5 and 13. It ranges in height from approx. 600mm to 775mm. It runs parallel to the existing retaining wall to the southern boundary. The retaining wall built for the adjacent school will not be moved as part of this project. The wall to the planter is 3450mm away from the blank gable to classroom 5 (classroom 13 sits over classroom 5). The retaining wall already built is 5 metres away from this blank gable.
