An innovative campus designed to meet the needs of students living in the CBD
In order to accommodate an influx of residents living in the Melbourne Central Business District (CBD), Haileybury decided to purchase an office building and convert it into Victoria’s first vertical school.
Located in West Melbourne, Haileybury City will be Melbourne’s first Early Learning to Year 12 independent school campus in the CBD. The innovative campus is designed to meet the education needs of students living in the CBD, inner and middle suburbs and offers extended hours for working parents. Our team was engaged to convert the original nine-storey office building to cater for 750 students. We also added 1,500 square metres of outdoor green recreation space on three terraces.
This project was completed in a staged construction, with stages one and two completed in 2016 and stages three and four completed in 2018. It has changed the way schools are built in Victoria—after this project, four more vertical schools were planned.
