Term 2 Construction Update: Building Momentum Across the College Campus
The College continues to make significant progress in its major infrastructure projects, with the Student Hub and JJ Block redevelopment entering exciting new stages. These works are key elements of our long-term Master Plan and reflect our ongoing commitment to delivering innovative, student-focused spaces that enhance learning, connection, and College life.
Student Hub
Following the successful awarding of the construction tender to Trowse earlier this year, the Student Hub build is progressing steadily and remains on schedule—despite experiencing the wettest March on record.
In addition to regular photo documentation, a GoPro has been mounted on the Claridge Centre to capture a time-lapse of the build.
Several foundational milestones have already been completed:
- Bulk excavation has been finalised, establishing the Level 1 platform at its reduced level
- Bored piers have been drilled and poured
- Footing beam construction is underway
- Site stormwater infrastructure is now complete
Throughout Term 3, the focus will be on the structural works that will bring the future heart of the campus to life. These include:
- Pouring of the ‘shotcrete’ sloping retaining wall
- Completion of pad footings and ground footing beams
- Blockwork and concrete walls taking shape
- Installation of under-slab services for the Lower Ground level
- Construction of Retaining Walls and installation of internal staircases (#1 and #2)
- Construction of covered walkways from the Middle School to the Tuckshop and Student Hub
Once completed, the Student Hub will offer a state-of-the-art, multi-purpose space housing our executive and administrative teams, a contemporary Prep–12 library, and dynamic classrooms to support collaborative learning. It remains on track for handover in early 2026.
Keswick Road Courts
Over the July school holidays, the Keswick Road Courts received their final resurfacing, marking the completion of this exciting project.
Earlier in Term 2, new lighting was installed, allowing twilight and evening use—perfect for student training, mustering for camps, and other after-hours activities. Now fully operational, the Keswick Road Courts are a vibrant, multi-purpose space that will continue to serve as a valuable resource for students and the wider College community for years to come.

JJ Block
Significant planning has also gone into the redevelopment of JJ Block to ensure minimal disruption to Junior School learning. As part of this transition, the following works are taking place throughout Term 3:
- Temporary classrooms will be operational
- Site establishment for JJ Block redevelopment is scheduled for mid-July
The completed JJ Block is set for handover in Term 1 2026. These works will modernise the Junior School precinct and ensure our youngest learners have access to high-quality, purpose-built facilities.
Looking Ahead
The months ahead will be busy as we move deeper into construction and closer to the delivery of these transformative projects. We thank our staff, students, and families for their continued patience and support as we work to shape an inspiring, future-ready campus for our community.
Stay tuned for further updates as our vision continues to take shape.
