Building Updates

Wodonga Senior Secondary College – on the move

Thursday 26 June 2014 Construction of a new $11.8 million dollar state-of-the-art building at Wodonga Senior Secondary College has been completed and the big move is on! Many students are spending their final day of school before the holidays helping to move some desks and chairs into the school’s Trade Training Centre to be refurbished before moving into the new building. The new building contains 28 teaching spaces/learning studios, purpose built for Science, Maths, English, Humanities, LOTE (Language other than English), Indonesian, Japanese and Chinese, Information Technology and Multi Media. The new facilities also include an expansive library/resource centre with three computer and multi-media rooms, a 200 seat lecture theatre with state of the art audio and visual technology, staff rooms and administration. There is also a Year 12 study space with kitchen and student amenities. Designed by Norris Architects the building was project managed by Bryant Alsop and constructed by Hansen Yuncken Pty Ltd with construction starting on site on 7 March 2013. The building is expected to be officially opened in August. The former building will be demolished at the end of the year to make way for sporting facilities. A school reunion has also been organised on August 30 to commemorate the move and farewell the old building which has been home to students for fifty years.
