Preston High School

We are building a four-level building with creative arts, design technology, library, classrooms and staff work areas.

We refurbished the gym and delivered art and media learning areas as well as a performance learning area. We also delivered staff administration areas.

In Stage 2, we built a new gymnasium with a competition-grade basketball court, change rooms, food technology and a canteen.

We also refurbished the existing gym to accommodate the school administration facilities.

The former Preston Girls’ Secondary College site re-opened as the new co-educational Preston High School in term 1, 2019, when it welcomed its first Year 7 students. Preston High School has an official web​site and Facebook page .

We refurbished the former school’s two-storey heritage building. We made use of the high ceilings and generously-sized spaces to create modern classrooms with space for art and science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) learning. On each level, there are breakout spaces for small group and individual projects. At the back of the main building is a central courtyard for students.

Community Engagement

We undertook community engagement in early 2017, asking parents, students, teachers and the wider community what sort of school they would like. More than 2,500 people participated in the engagement.

We summarised their comments in an engagement report, which has helped shape the school’s educational direction and the architect’s master plan. You can contact us for a copy of this engagement.
