Southern Cross Catholic College is pleased to share that approval
has been granted for the College to proceed with a major capital works program
at our Woody Point Campus.
For the past two years, the College has worked closely with
Brisbane Catholic Education and our architects, Phillips Smith Conwell, to
design a long- term vision that honours the history of the campus while
ensuring it can meet the needs of students and families for decades to come.
The result is a comprehensive plan that will modernise learning environments,
improve accessibility and create contemporary spaces that support high‑quality
teaching and learning.
Why a Major Build Is Needed
1. Age and Condition of Existing Buildings
Many of the current buildings on the campus are now at the
end of their functional life. The recent report commissioned to assess the
condition of the facilities identified structural and maintenance issues that
have become increasingly difficult to manage. A major redevelopment is the most
responsible and future-focused path forward.
2. Growing Interest in the Woody Point Campus
The Woody Point Campus continues to attract strong growth.
To accommodate this growth and to ensure every student has access to high-quality
learning spaces the College requires additional capacity. This means creating
new buildings, expanding specialist learning areas and reimagining the campus
layout to support contemporary education.
As part of the redevelopment, several existing buildings
will be refurbished while others will be respectfully retired to make way for
new purpose-built facilities. These changes will allow the College to create
flexible learning environments, improved outdoor spaces and enhanced specialist
areas that reflect the needs of today’s learners.
We look forward to keeping our community informed as
timelines are finalised and works begin. This is an exciting moment for
Southern Cross Catholic College. It is a moment shaped by our shared commitment
to providing the very best for our students.
