Winning pupils to demolish tower blocks…

Edinburgh schoolchildren compete to demolish three housing blocks.

A safety poster competition has been organised by the city council, with the winner getting to push the demolition button when the flats come down. The three blocks in Gracemount – Gala, Soutra and Fala Courts – are due to be demolished by Coleman & Co on Sunday October 25th.

“It will be good to talk to the schools and getting the children interested in demolition and recycling, whilst at the same time making them aware of how they or their friends can get hurt if they see sites as a playground,” says Coleman’s James Howard.
