The private establishment Saint-Pierre-Chanel grows and raises its walls. Extensive work is continuing this fall. They include the reconstruction of the gymnasium, that of a new building and a car park as well as the renovation of all the administrative part.
F.T. – Today at 06:00
The director of the private establishment Saint-Pierre-Chanel is making his comeback in a prefab, overlooking one of the playgrounds. The administrative part is no longer accessible. The offices have been moved. The large-scale project started in 2022 is continuing. In total, 6,600 m2 are renovated and built, for a budget of 12 million euros, 10% financed by the Region, the rest by own funds.
An enlarged gymnasium
Work started on the gymnasium last year. It is enlarged. “Not to accommodate more students but to make use more comfortable,” explains the headteacher, Michel Steinmetz. New locker rooms will also be installed. Delivery of this lot is expected in early 2024.
A new building
A three-storey building rises from the ground next to the gymnasium and the future underground car park that is emerging. This new construction will be occupied in particular by classrooms and plastic arts, techno labs, an office reserved for teachers, an infirmary. It will be connected to the administrative part currently under construction. “Because the goal is to create a complete traffic unit for people with reduced mobility. They will have access to all the rooms of the establishment”, specifies Michel Steinmetz.
The administrative part rebuilt
The project retains only the walls of the former administration. The rest will be demolished. The installation of an elevator is planned. The spaces are redesigned. For example, on the third floor, a studio will be fitted out to provide emergency accommodation for a substitute teacher for a fixed period.
Limited disturbances
The 2,200 students, middle school and high school students, who will return to school in 2023 in Saint-Pierre-Chanel should not be disturbed by the continuation of the construction site, with a few vibrations during the structural work. An entrance is condemned, rue du Chardon, one of the three playgrounds is restricted. A priori, the arrows will not be necessary for orientation.
