About the project

We renovated some buildings and added a covered walkway to the school.

The walkway offers weather protection and better connection to the outdoor environment. It gives the school a modern appearance with simple and durable materials.

We used fiberglass cladding in various shapes along an elevated walkway. It provides a range of spaces for learning and play. These included an outdoor gathering deck, an informal stage, and seating.

Inside the administration building, we made several upgrades including:

  • the reception area
  • a small group meeting room
  • the chaplain's office
  • staff work and meeting spaces.

We also improved the interior of the multipurpose building. We added movable walls for flexible use and upgraded the kitchen and floor finishes. These upgrades support the school's STEAM program. Additionally, it helps the school provide community programs such as the breakfast club.

In the 2020–21 State Budget, the school received $828,000.
