The month of April saw the opening of a new music block at Rednock School. This building, a smart single storey structure, replaces an ageing bulding inconveniently situated across the school field alongside Kingsill Lane. This block had been a long time coming, with a lot of preparatory work put in by the previous headteacher, John Pritchard, and his team. To honour this effort, the new block was named after him.

Progress on the library continued with the concrete being poured in the foundations. At the other end of town, on the old Bymacks site, further clearance has resulted in a completely changed landscape.
