We delivered a new gymnasium, outdoor plaza and additions to existing buildings at Xavier College, a Catholic co-educational school in Adelaide’s north, in the second stage of a three-part redevelopment master plan.

A key consideration was the client’s need for facilities that could be shared with the wider community, on top of regular school usage.

The scope of works included:

  • A student services hub
  • A contemporary learning classroom
  • A gymnasium with double basketball court
  • An outdoor plaza area and canopy
  • Associated civil works including an amphitheatre and extensive landscaping

Strong work in the early phase of the project allowed us to reach completion six weeks ahead of schedule, to the delight of the school and the surrounding community.
