TRANSFORMING GLENROY COLLEGE
DESIGN BACKGROUNDER
Architect designs unveiled
Glenroy College has a new senior and junior school, a state-of-the-art library (learning resource centre), administration centre and staff hub opening term one, 2021.
We are replacing around half of the college’s older buildings with architect-designed, permanent modular buildings.
Glenroy College’s $9.215 million modernisation project is part of the Victorian Government’s $7.2 billion investment to build new schools and upgrade more than 1,460 existing ones. In 2018, they committed to continuing that record investment by opening 100 new schools by 2026. This school-building boom is supporting 9,000 construction jobs in Victoria.
College values - respect, integrity, achievement and teamwork – and school community consultation helped shape the master plan and learning environment designs.
It’s the largest permanent modular, modernisation project being rolled-out by the Victorian School Building Authority this year.
This innovative modular construction method will have students and staff enjoying high quality, new surrounds - in half the time of traditional building.
Glenroy College’s new buildings will provide a welcoming and inclusive gateway to the school.

With a greater range of learning environments, students will gain more subject choices, new opportunities and extra support to reach their full potential in reading, maths, science, technology, hospitality, critical and creative thinking, the arts and physical education.
These improvements will allow Glenroy College to enhance its whole-of-school approach − engaging and supporting the all-round development of students from junior through to their senior years.
Glenroy College’s new buildings will complement the school’s existing specialist and sports facilities - providing students and staff with a series of connected precincts.

A new way of learningSeparate junior and senior learning centres will be made up of general and multipurpose teaching spaces with connections to specialist areas, helping students tailor individual pathways from a wide curriculum offering.
Junior learning centre with a small community feel The welcoming and nurturing junior learning centre is designed to help Years 7-9 students transition smoothly and thrive in their secondary school journey with the support they need.
Indoor locker areas located next to home rooms in the junior learning centre
Staff work areas co-located within the senior and junior learning centres will strengthen student-teacher bonds and increase opportunities for gaining feedback and support. Spaces for collaborative learning in ‘neighbourhoods’ and ‘communities’ will promote creativity and innovation.
Glenroy’s education precinct Prominently located near the corner of Glenroy and Cardinal Roads, Glenroy College’s new architecture will enhance the local streetscape and define the area’s education precinct.
Front of houseThe new administration centre will support teachers in offering a broad curriculum with improved access for students, families and visitors.

Extended learningIn the learning resource centre’s flexible, multipurpose spaces, students can discover and participate in research, study, quiet reflection, reading, creation, tutorials, group meetings or discussions.
Community gainsThe Glenroy community is set to have access to new meeting rooms in the college’s library – which along with the popular gymnasium and performing arts centre is bookable for after-hours use.

Building community The junior and senior learning communities are arranged around outdoor ‘green campus hearts’ (landscaped piazzas), one for junior and one for senior students. Centrally located, the campus hearts provide an inviting and safe place for school or casual gatherings, collaboration, eating, passive recreation and socialising.
The great outdoorsAll indoor and outdoor spaces are considered as opportunities to inspire learning, enquiry and engagement. For improved health and wellbeing, each new learning environment opens onto or has an outdoor aspect.
The junior and senior learning centres both feature central outdoor piazzas (‘green hearts’)
Staff hub
Inclusive design for student wellbeingThe diversity of modern indoor and outdoor learning environments caters for students’ different abilities and learning styles. Inclusive spaces create a secure and social experience for students and stronger sense of belonging. Examples include small to large classrooms; reflection nooks; one-on-one meeting rooms; breakout areas for pairs, individuals or small groups; university-style tutorials through to outdoor courtyards, decks, gardens and piazzas.
21st century teaching We have designed the new staff hub to support teachers’ professional development, collaboration and planning – somewhere to share ideas and resources. A separate lunch area for gatherings and quiet contemplation will offer respite from the staff work spaces within the senior and junior learning centres.
To better support contemporary and evolving teaching methods, be more inclusive of all student abilities, and provide a better teaching experience, learning environments feature:
· comfortable, fresh modern materials and generous natural light
· diversity of space types and sizes
· opportunities for interaction, personalisation and collaboration
· learning neighbourhoods with breakout spaces and nooks
for focus work or specialist education
· space for creative and flexible delivery of the curriculum
· collegiate workspaces and collaborative staff hubs
· agile spaces that can easily adapt to change.

How modular construction brings quality buildings to students fasterThe architect-designed, modular buildings are constructed in Victoria, off-site by specialist modular building manufacturers.
When compared to traditional building methods, modular buildings can be delivered in half the time with less disruption to students, staff and learning programs. Making for exciting viewing, the buildings arrive on the school site, pre-built as ‘modules’ for permanent installation and interior fit-out by the builders.
Sustainably designed and made, modular buildings make the most of natural light and cross-breezes. Together with thermal glazing, low-energy use lighting and quality materials – they provide comfortable and inspiring learning environments that are flexible and enduring.
