OUR LADY OF THE ASSUMPTION CATHOLIC PRIMARY SCHOOL – BVN

Our Lady of the Assumption Catholic Primary School is a new K-6 school for 420 students in North Strathfield, in Sydney’s inner-west. Flexible, open and inviting learning spaces support the school’s vision. Classes are situated on either side of a central circulation spine which forms an extension to the learning spaces. The diverse range of learning options are supported by joinery with built-in nooks and withdrawal spaces and a differentiation in ceiling heights. Furniture is movable, as are large sliding panels to allow easy reconfiguration of spaces by students to suit learning needs.

Connections between the street, playground, learning spaces and school administrative areas are enabled through the addition of a fourstorey atrium and the removal of most internal walls from the existing structure, replaced with transparent sliding panels and glass throughout.
