Specialists in live school environment delivery, Harris HMC was contracted to repurpose and refurbish the existing Keith Jones Gymnasium to create a purpose-built and dedicated learning facility for students in Years 5 and 6. The client sought well designed internal and external spaces across two floors and associated outdoor areas.
The new centre consists of eight light-filled classrooms, reading lounges, staff and breakout spaces, a multi-purpose performance auditorium, an outdoor learning deck, a technology hub including a professional film studio, recording booths and food technology facilities and common areas inclusive of locker bays and informal learning spaces.
