We’re thrilled to share that our Hilltops Young High School Library has been shortlisted in the Australian Institute of Architects NSW Chapter Awards under the Educational Architecture category.
Connecting deeply to Wiradjuri Country and the project’s historic setting, the Hilltops Young High School Library is an integrated joint-use facility enabling whole-of-life learning for the community of Hilltops. Diverse facilities include a vast collection of library books including children’s, Wiradjuri learning centre and extensive community facilities such as an art gallery, wellbeing consulting, tertiary study centre, presentation space, creative arts, multimedia and maker spaces and a café.
The project a result of extensive collaboration between School Infrastructure NSW and local government Hilltops Council, educators and community representatives. Listed on the School Infrastructure NSW website are all the community benefits the facility provides, a video of a staff and students tour, and a completion fly through.
Congratulations to the entire team who worked on this project, and we look forward to the AIA Awards results in June.
