CEFPI Queensland invites you to tour two 'modern education' facilities - St Hilda’s School's award winning 'Jennifer Reeves Building' and Saint Stephen's College new 'Science and Applied Learning Centre'.
St Hilda's School have successfully transformed an existing three storey 1980's brick building into a dynamic, innovative example of modern educational architecture. The project successfully integrates and enhances the existing campus fabric while delivering adaptable flexible learning spaces that challenge traditional teaching pedagogy'.
Saint Stephen's College Science and Applied Learning Centre challenges the traditional delivery methodology of science education. As a departure from the long-established 'Laboratory' style facility, the intent is to create a space that would inspire students to explore the world of science through discovery, enquiry and self-guided education.
Working within an established framework, the facility reinvents and extends an existing built envelope, transforming six traditional classrooms into flexible, dynamic learning spaces. The new portion of the building contains a theatre-style demonstration laboratory, research lounge and additional classrooms all linked by a 'collaboration spine'. These spaces motivate students to engage in self-guided learning by facilitating live experiments and open discussion forums.
