Our scope included the development of a community integrated and connected master plan and the design of a campus and associated buildings for a K-6 primary school campus.
The school comprises a centrally located administration building, flanked by 3 standard single storey and 2 new style 2 storey teaching block buildings and a covered assembly building. The 2 storey buildings are positioned to enclose the landscaped central courtyard, providing weather protection from south westerly wind and rain.
The project was delivered during a period of building materials shortages, escalating costs and intense demand for the available skilled labour. We developed a strategy for developing the school in spearable portions to mitigate the potential for delays.
This project was delivered on time and on budget in a challenging construction environment.
