WE CAN BUILD: HOMEBUILDER DONATES EDUCATIONAL BOOKS TO BERKSHIRE SCHOOL
The book, named ‘We Can Build’, takes readers on the journey of building a house through the various professions in the housebuilding industry.
Aimed at Key Stage One pupils, it introduces young learners to the basic building blocks of the built environment, sustainability and will inspire the next generation of Architects, Engineers and Site Managers.
In addition, 100% of the profits of the sale of the books are going to The Prince’s Trust; a charity that helps connect young people with mentors, career opportunities and provide pathways into inspiring futures.
Rachel Alston, English Lead at The Winchcombe School, said: “We were really grateful to receive the donation of ‘We Can Build’ books from David Wilson Homes.
“The book will teach our Key Stage One children about the process of building a new home, and will perhaps inspire our pupils to consider a career in the construction industry.”
The school, which is close to the housebuilder’s Newbury Racecourse and Donnington Heights developments, was delighted to receive the donation.
Rob Allen, Sales Director at David Wilson Homes Southern, said: “We are really proud of our ASPIRE graduates for the amazing book they have put together.
“The book covers all elements of construction including architecture, engineering, surveying, site management, construction and sales. We hope that the book might inspire some of the pupils of The Winchcombe School to become the next generation in the industry.
