The construction of the new Ysgol y Graig campus, on Lon Talwrn in Llangefni, has provided Wynne Construction with a “landmark project” of building the first ever eco-friendly school in Wales, thereby setting new standards in environmental design.

Working in partnership with Anglesey County Council, the £3.7m new build contract was won following a two stage selection procedure. Gareth Thomas, Architect for Anglesey, comments: “Wynne Construction produced an excellent tender submission and they were evaluated with an outstanding record in Quality and Health and Safety. The eco-friendly aspects of the building presented a number of challenges and it was therefore important to have the right partnership in place to achieve a successful project outcome.

Wynne Construction is very experienced in the education market and having worked with the Council previously, we were pleased to be working with the same team of dedicated people.”

For this new school – the first to be built on the Isle of Anglesey since 2002 – the council took the opportunity to relocate to the fringe of Llangefni and work started on site during October 2007.
