Building Project Photos - 2021 & 2022
We will continue to add the most up to date pictures to the top of this page.
14/12/22 Update - Our building project is all tracking to plan and timelines.
At the moment lots of the interior work is underway with paint and flooring starting to add colour to the spaces.
Over the holiday period before school returns a significant amount of external landscaping at the front of the new building will occur.
We will see some fencing changes between the site and school when we return after the holidays. We will share any changes to entry to the school before school returns on February 8 2023.
The Ministry Of Education had a drone fly over the building site to get footage. We asked the drone to fly over our playground too.
The movie might take a while to load but it's worth the wait.

4/8/22 Update - There are more and more contractors on site now as our building project progresses. The project remains on track for us to move in by April 2023.
The roof installation is almost completed and framing and carpentry work inside is underway.
Brick cladding on the front of the building starts next week.
You may have noticed that many of the windows have now been installed. From inside the building the views out to Arthur Street, Onehunga and the harbour are fantastic and give a real sense of connection to our community.

7/7/22 Update - It’s all happening on the building site!
Over the next two weeks the roof install will be completed and most of the carpentry framing will be finished. Windows and glass work is underway and the exterior bricks on the road front of the building will be starting soon.
Our staff had a second visit to the building site this week and enjoyed spectacular views from the top floor. We are looking forward to a time when it will be safe to take students into the building so they can see and be part of the exciting progress.
