It’s full steam ahead for Thornbury High School’s $14.901m new Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) Centre, a project funded by the Victorian School Building Authority (VSBA) on behalf of the State Government of Victoria.
Thornbury High School has been delivering on a transformative masterplan to reimagine its campus, expand learning opportunities for students, and provide the local community with access to first-class learning, sporting and performance facilities.
Stage 2 of the redevelopment includes the construction of a new two-level Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) Centre plus the upgrade and modernisation of existing school facilities.
The cutting-edge STEAM Centre will provide a purpose-built learning environment which includes modern teaching, break out and presentation spaces; science laboratories; as well as a ceramics, textiles, food technology and fabrication workshop.
