Pupils at a school in Stratford can expect a warm reception when they take to the stage of their new theatre, thanks to a Midlands construction firm.
MCS, based in Claverdon near Warwick, has completely rebuilt the theatre and sports hall at The Croft Preparatory School on Loxley Road – a building that was originally used by Alveston Kitchens as a drive-in freezer.
The school – which moved to its present 30-acre site in 1986 – asked MCS to reconstruct the building around the existing frame, that was put together in the 1950s, and to have it ready in time for pupils to perform their nativity plays.
* Year five pupils are pictured with Patrick Barrett and Rachael Phillips from MCS and Barney Thornton, director of project development at the school.
