Stage 1 delivered the school’s first learning and administration facilities, including reception and staff areas together with nine learning environments arranged across two levels. The design prioritised clarity, functionality and ease of movement, creating welcoming and highly usable spaces for students, staff and the broader school community.
A palette of warm colours, natural timber finishes and durable materials was used throughout to create a cohesive and consistent identity across the new campus. The learning areas were designed to support flexibility, visibility and a range of teaching and learning modes, while maintaining a calm and approachable environment for young students.
