The project is constructed within the site of a 130 year old wool store at the corner of Smail and Mountain Streets, Pyrmont.
The Centre’s versatile facilities include a university-style academic lecture theatre, seminar rooms, break out spaces for collaboration and meeting rooms, as well as back of house facilities. The walls are adorned with stylised large-scale representations from The Italian Renaissance such as Michelangelo’s David and Leonardo Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa as we seek to inspire our students further to love and treasure learning.
Principal Ms Shauna Colnan said, “… This space is everything we were hoping for – and more. It is inspiring and has been delivered against a complex brief. This is going to change the educational experience for our students and our teachers and we can’t wait to open the doors to teaching and learning across the school next term.”
