Richmond High School
The $43 million four-storey urban vertical school is the first vertical government high school in Victoria. Set in a dense and diverse neighbourhood, the school caters for 650 students in years 7-12 and provides shared facilities for the local community.
Two distinct precincts were developed across two sites, one academic, the other sports. The state-of-the-art facilities include flexible learning spaces, competition-standard netball courts, a performing arts space, rooftop garden, terrace balconies and an open atrium at the heart of the building that connects the floors within the building.
The project was named Best Secondary School in the 2019 Victorian School Design Awards and was shortlisted for the AIA Victorian Architecture Awards in 2020 for Educational Architecture.
