About the project

We modernised the school to give students better learning opportunities. This significant upgrade delivers the first stage of a master plan.

We built:

  • a classroom building with learning spaces and staff rooms
  • a therapy building with space for physiotherapy and occupational therapy.

We also built toilets in both buildings. Outside, we upgraded the bike path, landscaping and play equipment.
