The new Innovation Centre is intended as a signature building for the school. It replaces 19 classrooms and the school library which were destroyed by fire and creates a new, strongly defined school entry.
It is designed to reflect current pedagogy and 21st Century learning environments with classrooms opening to learning commons.
A major element of the project is the associated terraced landscaping which creates a distinct campus heart and provides seating focussed on the Hall which will be replanned to open up to this area. It is envisioned that the school will eventually have a large format projection screen located on the Hall.
The school, in partnership with The University of Western Sydney has developed a brief for a centre of excellence for teacher training. The new building was designed to include a lecture theatre and Café Hub.
The new building addresses a significant site fall by incorporating a graded walkway along a corridor activated by exhibits and openings into the learning commons.
