Building a vibrant educational hub in Melbourne’s west
Located in the rapidly growing outer suburbs of Melbourne’s West, the Point Cook South Schools Bundle is set to address the rising enrolment demand. Built Environs has been engaged to deliver two new primary schools, including one with supported inclusion for students with disabilities, as well as a kindergarten.
These schools and the kindergarten will be co-located on an ~11ha greenfield site, providing a vibrant heart for this expanding community. Facilities on this substantial site will include:
- administration and library building
- modern learning neighbourhoods
- community hubs for visual arts, technology, science, and sports facilities
- outdoor hard courts, sports fields, and landscaping
The specialist school and kindergarten are scheduled to open for the start of the 2026 school year. Built Environs has teamed up with PreBuilt to use modular construction, allowing offsite construction to progress prior to site access.
The P-9 school works will follow during 2026, ready for the start of the 2027 school year.
