As the challenges facing our world grow increasingly complex, the skills and values we nurture in our students must also evolve.
Our vision for the developing Centre for Humanities ushers in an exciting new era of collaboration between staff and students: a learning environment unmatched in Australia and on par with the best school facilities in the world which will allow for deeper thinking, more open and respectful debate, and new ways of learning.
This is only possible thanks to generations of past and current donors who have so generously given to the School.
The project exists thanks to the commitment of our philanthropic community, along with careful financial stewardship. All members of our community will be given the opportunity to provide support. No matter how large or small, the support is meaningful, makes an impact and is appreciated.
Construction began in late 2024, and the site has quickly transformed from an empty excavation to a building rising confidently over Domain Road.
Following the bulk excavation of the site and the subsequent pouring of the lower ground, ground floor and higher ground slabs, the project “topped out” in September – a major milestone marking the completion of the building’s structural frame.
From here, attention will turn to internal fit-out and finishing works, including the light-filled subterranean garden, collaborative classrooms, and breakout study spaces.
Construction of the Centre for Humanities is due for completion in mid-2026, with occupancy of the building soon after – we look forward to sharing new updates in the coming months.
