What could be more fun than to see young people\u2019s enthusiasm regarding your profession? That is why you can find them at Pellikaan on a regular basis. They visit the sites, celebrate milestones with us, do school projects or traineeships.<\/p>\n

Construction art<\/strong>
\nAs an example, local students helped decorate our site hoarding in Newbury with a Rugby World Cup theme. Primary school pupils prepared drawings for the start ceremony in Wyre Forest and students in Heerlen, The Netherlands made great short videos about the work on site (see their videos here<\/a>). In Tadworth a group of students is following the whole project from start to finish. We are looking forward to see their film at the end!<\/p>\n

From work experience week to thesis<\/strong>
\nOther young people joined us for traineeships. Dutch 14-year old Demi did her work experience week at head office in The Netherlands; 17-year-old English Ben discovered that he found the design aspect most interesting during his week on site in Washington. Brandon, Sjors and Sjef all did traineeships at Pellikaan whilst studying construction \/ engineering –\u00a0 and ended up working with us as assistant site managers and as design manager. And just this week, Bert and Kenny presented their thesis for their Bachelor in Construction Engineering. Over the past months they researched which building envelope solution is ideal for new Pellikaan school buildings.<\/p>\n

Social Return on Investment<\/strong>
\nTo create awareness and affiliation with a project, to inspire young people about our work, and provide them with the opportunity to get practical experience. \u201cIt is all part of our role as principle contractor\u201d says Andrew Laslett, project manager in Tadworth. Our projects are important to the local community: we subcontract regionally where possible and we involve the people in the neighbourhood \u2013 especially children and young people. \u201cIt is also motivating for us to see the enthusiasm of students when they visit the construction sites,it provides the entire site and workforce with a validation for our efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n
