John and Christine had the pleasure of attending a presentation at the University of the Highlands and Islands – Moray College to see designs created by students in the HNC class Computer Aided Draughting and Design (CADD). Earlier this year Busega Scotland had prepared a brief for the CADD class to design a visitors’ house for the Mayega Children’s Centre. The Mayega staff  are keen that visitors should have such accommodation on site to add to the life of the centre and avoid just hurried day visits (Mayega is 85 miles from the regional centre, Mwanza).

Three of the CADD class took up the challenge and produced incredibly imaginative and practical designs. As well as the work being assessed for examination purposes, the exercise was also a competition, with John and Christine the judges! This will be no easy task, and the design portfolios will need to be studied carefully to determine the winner (this will, of course, be announced on our news page in due course).

The visitors’ house project is also being supported by CM Design – Architectural Consultants. Managing Director Craig Mackay and Director Adam James attended the presentation. It was great to hear the positive comments and suggestions on the students’ designs from professional architects and designers.

It really was a tremendous afternoon.
