The Hanly Learning Centre won the AIA National Award for Education Architecture in 2017 and was also awarded the overall winner of the School Library Category in the 2017 ALIA Library Design Awards.

The Learning Centre offers diverse learning settings and has elevated the relevance of the library on campus, raising the profile of teaching and learning in a school known for its sporting prowess. The building is necessarily monumental: an expression of the contemporary priorities of the College in the context of the historic Treacy building and hallowed Ross Oval.

Project:  Potter Building Adaptive Reuse Project

The Potter Building is the adaptive reuse of an existing 4 storey building buried in the State Heritage listed All Hallows’ School campus. The addition of a fifth floor, and the lateral extension of the existing floors quadrupled the existing library floor area. All new floor area is cross laminated timber (CLT) slabs on a steel frame. Voids and stairs have been inserted to create interconnecting volumes, weaving the building into a cohesive whole. This facility has provided the school with a sophisticated solution to numerous spatial and circulation issues, and a dynamic learning environment for an evolving curriculum.
