FINAL COMPLETION OF BUILDING REFURBISHMENT WORKS
During the recent Term One 2020 school holiday period, the College’s Facilities Department completed the finishing touches to the Mannix Building refurbishment project that commenced in December 2019. All carpeted surfaces have been refurbished, and a full internal paint was undertaken to provide a brighter, more contemporary feel to the teaching and learning spaces within the building. This project completes the extensive refurbishment of three College buildings undertaken over the Christmas/New Year period and Term 1 2020 holidays.
Here is a recap of the works undertaken across our Murdoch, De Sales and Mannix Buildings:
