Northshore Christian Grammar School Expansion

Overview

7 New Learning Spaces Supporting 224 Students

Northshore Christian Grammar School engaged Fleetwood to deliver Stage 3 of its expanding campus in Alkimos, Western Australia, to support continued enrolment growth and strengthen the school’s specialist STEM learning facilities.

This latest stage builds on two previous modular education projects delivered by Fleetwood on the campus, which provided additional classrooms and learning spaces to support the school’s rapid growth.

The project introduced a new science block alongside additional general learning areas, providing modern learning environments designed to support both practical and theory-based education.

This stage of development includes three specialist science laboratories, a science preparation room, a teacher’s office, four general learning classrooms and a breakout learning space, accommodating up to 224 students across seven classrooms.

Designed to integrate with the school’s existing award-winning architecture, the expansion enhances the campus while supporting a growing student population of more than 1,100 students.

Solution

10 Modular Units Delivered Across Two Staged Installations

Fleetwood delivered a full turnkey modular solution, managing design, approvals, manufacturing, transport and installation.

A total of 10 modular units were fabricated at Fleetwood’s Perth manufacturing facility, then transported to the site and installed in staged phases within the live school environment.

The project was delivered across two key building components:

• Five modules forming four general learning classrooms and a breakout space
• Five modules forming three science laboratories, a preparation room, a teacher’s office and storage

The science block required specialist laboratory infrastructure, including benches, sinks, gas taps with emergency shut-off systems and dedicated preparation areas. These elements were installed and coordinated with specialist contractors to ensure safety and compliance.

Off-site fabrication, combined with efficient on-site installation, enabled Fleetwood to deliver the facilities while minimising disruption to school operations.

Benefits

Larger 100m² Science Laboratories for Modern STEM Teaching

The new science laboratories significantly improve the learning environment for students and teachers.

• Larger laboratories (approx. 100m² vs previous 76m²), improving movement and supervision
• Dedicated preparation room and equipment storage
• Improved classroom visibility and acoustics

Capacity for 224 Students Across 7 New Learning Spaces

The development provides flexible learning spaces designed to support the school’s continued growth.

• Three specialist science laboratories
• Four general learning classrooms and a breakout space
• Flexible environments supporting multiple teaching styles

Faster Delivery Through Modern Methods of Construction

Off-site modular construction accelerated delivery while maintaining safety and quality.

• 10 modular units manufactured off-site
• Staged installation within a live school environment
• Reduced disruption to students, staff and daily school activities
