BLESSINGS and celebrations were in abundance for the grand opening and official ribbon cutting at St Anne’s College Kialla.
The college officially opened Stage 2B of its development which includes science and design inspiration specialist learning areas along with some general learning and breakout space for secondary students. It also included general learning areas and multifunction specialist breakout spaces for primary students.
Like the college’s previous building stages, it was designed by architect Dr Ken Woodman.
“Continuing to build on the first two stages of St Anne’s College this extension delivers additional art spaces and the science centre,” Dr Woodman said.
“Guided by the innovative art and science educational approach, these spaces support large, small group, and individual learning opportunities. Art provides for large studio work with the opportunity for smaller workshop spaces while science has larger laboratories for all the sciences with smaller labs for specific science experimentation.”
Next year, St Anne’s College will add its final year level (Year 6) after the school began with just Foundation and Year 7 students in 2019. An additional year level has been added to both primary and secondary levels each year since opening to students 2019.
The college is looking forward to the further expansion of its campus.
Future stages of the College Masterplan include technology, which is currently under construction, as well as a stadium, general learning and administration.
