Wahroonga Adventist School

Wahroonga Adventist School has undergone a remarkable transformation, reimagining its campus to meet the demands of contemporary education while making the most of a highly constrained urban site.

Designed as a four-storey vertical school with a basement car park and kiss-and-drop facilities, the new campus brings together Junior, Middle, and Senior Schools in a carefully planned, interconnected environment. Central to the design is an ‘internal pedestrian street’, a key organising element that enhances circulation, connectivity, and community engagement across the five levels.

Respecting the school’s local context, the mass, façade, and scale of the buildings have been carefully considered to create a sense of openness, ensuring both visual and pedestrian connectivity. The inclusion of a rooftop playgroundmaximises available space, providing students with valuable outdoor learning and recreation areas.
