Albany School Hall Opening
Earlier this month, Octa was pleased to attend the opening and blessing of the new Albany Primary School Hall—a special moment marking the successful handover of a new space designed as a flexible, welcoming environment to support assemblies, sport, performance, and wider school and community events.

Reaching this milestone was made possible through close collaboration between the Ministry of Education, Albany Primary School, Watts & Hughes Construction, and Jasmax, with a shared focus on delivering a high‑quality outcome for the school community. It was great to see students, staff, and project partners come together to formally welcome the hall into use.

The project was led by Octa Project Manager Adelene Han, who brings over 15 years’ experience delivering successful school and education projects, with a strong focus on collaboration, programme certainty, and quality outcomes. Octa is proud to have supported the school through delivery and close‑out and looks forward to seeing the hall enjoyed for years to come.

Apartments on Vogel: The Structure Takes Shape
A major milestone is now visible on site at the Apartments on Vogel for the Cambridge Resthaven Community Trust. With cranes in action and teams working in sync, Buildings A & B are rising from the ground. Ground floor tilt panels and steel framing are now in place, giving the development its first clear form, while Level 1 precast balconies mark an exciting step into the next construction phase. Each lift brings Stage 2 of Resthaven’s campus redevelopment vision closer to reality.

Project managed by Octa’s project managers, Holly Singh and Mia Sonntag, with Scott McVicar-Lukey as Engineer to Contract.
