Primary Precinct
Marist College Ashgrove
2021 - 2024
Initially engaged to develop a 2030 masterplan for Marist College Ashgrove's campus, Phorm Architecture + Design was nominated as the sole architect for Stage 1 of the plan—the New Primary School Precinct, associated drop-off zone, and public areas. The construction of the Primary Building included 10 new general learning areas and a new administration and reception area, featuring a significant podium 'understorey' for ancillary primary assemblies and lunchtime shade cover.
The New Primary Building presented an incredible opportunity to restructure the entire Primary Precinct and reframe the teaching pedagogy. This facility incorporates creative, unique, motivational, and effective community learning environments. The design embraces and facilitates collaborative exchanges in teaching and learning to empower students, parents, teachers, and the surrounding community.
