Construction
Baldasso Cortese Architects designed a dramatic, drum-shaped building with significant visual impact. It is situated at the forefront of the school and presents a strong and impressive public interface. Interiors are well handled to accommodate important sight line and acoustic parameters with quality materials and finishes rounding out an excellent space. The building was constructed by the team at SJ Higgins working closely with the architects, Baldasso Cortese.
A New Era For Performance
Our students have performed several concerts, drama performances and musicals, our students have loved having the opportunity to perform in a building of such high calibre.
State of the Art
Our PAC is a fine example of modern architecture, both in appearance and in the facilities it offers. It has a beautifully presented theatre and concert spaces, it is acoustically of a very high standard and its technical fitout is superb. As well as the main auditorium and stage, the centre also includes a small performance space and links to the drama studio. It would be hard to find a better environment for activities such as music, drama, learning and personal development.
Award Winning
We know the PAC is special – so you can imagine how thrilled we were when it was announced as the Winner of Excellence in Construction of Commercial Building from $10 - $15 million in the Master Builders of Victoria Excellence in Construction Awards 2019.
More recently the building was entered into the MBA National Commercial / Industrial Construction Award $10-20 million 2019, coming in at first place.
Hearty congratulations go to the builders, SJ Higgins, and architects, Baldasso Cortese, on their remarkable achievement.
