The project

Modernising Student Dining & High-Capacity Catering Facilities

As part of Darcy Construction’s ongoing four-year partnership with Farleigh School, our team delivered extensive interior refurbishments and structural upgrades to the school’s central dining hall and commercial catering kitchen.

The project involved upgrading high-capacity catering infrastructure, modernising pupil dining halls, and creating clean, hygienic, and efficient food preparation environments designed to cater for hundreds of students and staff daily.

Project Scope & Key Features:

Commercial Kitchen & Catering Upgrades: Installed high-specification hygienic wall claddings, heavy-duty commercial flooring, and modern catering ventilation infrastructure.

Dining Hall Interior Modernisation: Refurbished central communal dining areas, improving acoustics, lighting, and circulation flow for staff and students.

Live Campus Safety & Hygiene Controls: Executed works safely within a live educational environment, enforcing strict dust, noise, and health and safety containment protocols during active school periods.

Holiday Window Execution: Fast-track delivery scheduled across non-term windows to ensure zero interruption to daily school meal operations.

Hybrid Procurement Route: Managed through a combined Design & Build and Traditional procurement route alongside school leadership and technical consultants.

Director-Led Oversight: Delivered with direct board-level management and executed using our regional 90%+ local Hampshire supply chain.
