Constructed by Building Engineering and designed by architects Mclldowie Partners this eco-friendly, sustainable complex incorporates high-performance glass to minimise energy consumption and solar panels on the roof that add 95kw to the already 800kw generated by the school, making Ivanhoe Grammar School one of the leading schools in Australia for solar power use.
'The Sports Centre has bought a new level of excitement to our subject area of Health & PE! We have been able to extend our students in the units of work they are covering in class. It has been an excellent learning space where we can easily move our classes from working in the classroom, straight to the basketball court or fitness centre where students are able to put key concepts learnt in our senior PE classes, into practical application. Health & PE staff and students are excited to see what the future holds for our programs,' said Curriculum Leader - Health & PE Christina Parodi.
