By the end of this year our three new buildings should be finished.

Oaklands Redevelopment —

This will be a real milestone in our journey to a redeveloped school.

By the end of Term 3 our builders expect to have the new junior learning space completed. During Term 4 the new year 7-8 space which was the old administration block will be completed and our senior students will move into this new learning space. 

The completed junior learning space (pictured below this week with its roof on) will have a covered outdoor area, a kitchen and a wet area. Once the building is complete work will begin on its nature garden that the students will have a role in designing.  Year 0 and 1 students should be able to use all of the block from Term 4.

The new learning space bridges the gap between rooms 21 and 22 and forms a new, large junior block. — Image by: Oaklands Redevelopment

The new administration block and learning spaces are  due to be finished by the end of Term 4.  In next week's newsletter we'll share with you what these buildings will be like inside and some special features.
