When St. Francis of the Fields Primary School announced plans to build an Early Learning Centre, they emphasised the development must be economical, durable and environmentally sustainable. The $950, 000 project was backed by a State Government grant of $650,000 and additionally supported by St. Therese’s Parish.
With an impeccable reputation and two other large projects successfully completed for this client, Pretect was a logical choice of builder to design and construct a prefab Kindergarten. Sustainability was a key outcome for this project which Pretect achieved with:
- A central area with a 6.5m tall ceiling that floods the internal space of the building with natural light and reduces electricity consumption.
- The use of largely green construction materials off-site production that minimises disturbances to the natural environment.
Pretect’s well-known ability to deliver quality prefab buildings meant that construction was completed in less than 6 months by employing the benefits Pretect is renowned for.
Strathfieldsaye is now well-equipped to accommodate young minds who willgrow and flourish within the walls of this modern modular educational facility. Assisi Kindergarten is another example of how prefab construction allows you to adhere to a tight budget and schedule, without compromising quality, aesthetics and sustainability.
