Overview

A new primary school for South-East Melbourne. Designed to be accessible and inclusive. Built in 12 months.

Located in the rapidly developing suburb of Officer, Kurmile Primary School emerges, responding to the escalating educational needs of a growing community.

The new campus includes a shared administration and library building, three learning neighbourhoods, a community hub with an indoor multi-use court, a canteen, arts and science classrooms, performing arts spaces, a food tech classroom, external hard courts, and a car park.

The school’s outdoor environment features gardens and walkways including a cultural path leading to a yarning circle. Three tailored playgrounds, a professional sports field, two outdoor courts, and an edible garden with bespoke seating areas complete the rich educational and recreational experience.

Process

Amidst a fast-tracked program, we took on an expanded scope, completing nearly $10M of additional works. By adopting a phased design approach, we synchronised our on-site progress with ongoing drawing development. Despite delays in securing permanent power, we achieved an early practical completion for the entire project.
