Brentwood Park Primary School, VIC

We’re beyond excited to unveil the transformation of Brentwood Park Primary School, brought to life by Prime Build and the Victorian School Building Authority (VSBA).

The project introduces an innovative, single-story building equipped with state-of-the-art classrooms, vibrant arts space, and modern kitchen, all meticulously designed to foster an engaging and dynamic learning environment.

Key to this transformation is the installation of an acoustic operable wall. A feature that redefines the use of space by offering the versatility of either two distinct learning areas, or one expansive collaborative space, perfectly suited for a variety of teaching and learning styles. The enhancement of superior acoustic wall and ceiling insulation, guarantees an environment where every lesson is clear, and every student’s participation is valued.

The thoughtful integration of the main building and external areas through extensive glazing on the North façade, creates a harmonious blend of indoor comfort and outdoor beauty.

An external pavilion encourages outdoor learning and relaxation surrounded by durable exposed aggregate paths and soft landscaping, inviting the school community to connect with nature.

This modernisation project is more than just a renovation, it’s a leap towards education environments that inspire and adapt to future learning needs. Prime Build and the VSBA are proud to contribute to a project that not only meets today’s educational standards but also ignites the imagination and potential of tomorrow’s leaders.
