Rossmoyne Senior High School (Stages 1 & 2)

PROJECT SNAPSHOT 

Following a competitive tender process, PACT were awarded Stages 1 & 2 at Rossmoyne Senior High School. It was designed by T&Z Architects.

Works included a new two-storey building, refurbishments and the construction of an international-sized soccer pitch.

OVERCOMING CHALLENGES

• The task of enhancing the school’s existing Design and Technology facilities presented ongoing logistical and safety challenges, with internal demolition works and refurbishments requiring contractors to work around the hundreds of students who frequented the area daily.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Overall, the Rossmoyne Senior High School development was completed in just 53 weeks.
• The refurbished entry statement, including an outdoor amphitheatre, has provided a complete refresh of the school’s entrance.

FEATURES OF DEVELOPMENT 

Stage 1 – New ‘state of the art’ building: Our first-class building expertise was put on display as our team began works on the new two-storey building which would house English and LOTE classrooms, visual arts, photography and media studios, and a new cafeteria and staffroom. Ensuring a seamless transition from interior to exterior spaces, the new performing arts theatre takes full advantage of the feature limestone block work around the new facility.

A striking façade consists of extensive feature glazing and shading and a contemporary concrete finish.

Stage 2 – Internal demolition and refurbishment: Our experience and expertise ensured this second stage was carried out seamlessly, with all works completed on time including the creation of an international-sized soccer pitch.
