Meanwhile, a new single-storey building serves as the secure single point of entry to the campus, containing the site’s administrative offices. 

Three existing classroom wings were modernised as part of the works, involving seismic upgrades, new roofing, windows, and updated mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems.  

The project was originally budgeted at $50m but was completed with a $2.8m saving.  

These savings enabled the district to implement further enhancements, including synthetic turf for courtyards, a new car park, and improved security measures.  

This development comes after Thompson Builders announced the ground-breaking for the Merritt College Horticulture Complex project in Oakland, US, in September last year.
