Beau: When I walked into the school, I was amazed by all the colours.
The video shows a group of 5 primary school students entering the school through a bright orange gate. They walk down a corridor, looking at the building around them. The floor is orange and the walls are a light neutral colour. The students walk past blue cabinetry with a blue ceiling feature above it.

Ava: One of the very big differences is that the new campus is vertical.

Viana: I liked the performing arts area.
We see a blue staircase leading down to a multistorey blue void. There are feature windows on the next level up that look into a room with green furniture.
Viana: I liked how it was like levels, like stadiums. And I liked how there was like, lights shooting onto it so there's more space for the people to perform.
The students walk down the blue staircase and we can see cut-out features in the walls and a large blue graphic feature on the ceiling.
Eli: I like all the patterns.
We see the students sitting at a table in a large room with yellow accents. There is a column and an inverted dome-shaped ceiling feature decorated with a swirling graphic.

Eli: Every room has a colour theme and I liked all the circles.
The camera pans around a large learning space with a curved breakout space. The room has orange accents and is decorated with a yellow wattle flower pattern.
The students walk through a learning space with a pink breakout room, and then through a green accented room with green beanbags.
Beau: I really liked the breakout rooms because I think it'd be a good place to independently read with the beanbags. It's quite dark and nice.

Harshul: I like the art and science room because we've never really had a proper science room at the Errol Street campus, and I liked how there were different, like pictures and diagrams on the walls.
As Harshul speaks, the students walk through spacious art and science rooms.
We see a corridor with neat banks of student lockers. The students walk through a space with shiny orange and white tiles on the walls. There are drinking fountains set into the wall.
The video takes us through a breakout area with tiered carpeted steps and wavy-shaped orange desks. The area adjoining the breakout area has blue walls and desks, and features cloud patterns.
We then take a tour of various rooms at the school. We see a learning space that has green desks and a breakout room with a swirl pattern. The video cuts to a zoomed-out view of the room with yellow accents and a striking ceiling feature. We pass a sign reading ‘Library – the Nest’.
The video pans across a large room with green accents and a very large inverted-dome ceiling feature decorated in a green swirl pattern. We see tiered green seating spaces next to a window. The next shot is of a student sitting in a round space set into an orange wall.
The video takes us to the exterior of the school, which has rounded garden beds leading to an orange entry feature.
