Haileybury Building Fund

Supporting our campuses through the Voluntary Building Fund

The quality and calibre of our School buildings and facilities play a major role in how we deliver world-class education to our students.

Donations to the Haileybury Building Fund support key building initiatives across all of the Haileybury campuses. We thank our donors who contribute regularly to the Building Fund and, in particular, our parents who donate to the Voluntary Building Fund. A summary of some of the projects that have been funded through these gifts appears below.

 

Berwick Campus

Installation of a new playground/obstacle course in the junior school.

Brighton Campus - New driveway fence

As the main driveway at Brighton is surrounded by ovals either side of the roadway, there has been a risk identified with students’ activities during peak times. To alleviate this risk, a new heavy duty commercial flat top fence was installed on both sides of the main driveway. This will ensure that activities on these ovals are contained away from general traffic.

City - Pangea staff spaces

With the continued growth of Pangea, further dedicated teaching spaces were required. Four high quality, acoustically sound spaces were constructed to meet this growing need. These spaces provide world class spaces for our teaching staff.

Keysborough - ELC LED carpark lighting

With the hours worked by our ELC staff, they often leave site during dark periods. We identified that the poorly lit car park was an issue in winter months. Three LED carpark lighting poles were installed across the car park to ensure safety during darker periods of the year. The light fittings are operated via individual solar panels rather than a direct electrical source. This project showcases the fact we are always considering sustainable practices as an integral part of building works at Haileybury.

Boys Middle School Art Room

The original focus of the Art facility at Newlands was to appear as a venue with minimalistic features, hence the architects designed the space to appear as a shed. To modernise this space to function as a state-of-the-art facility, while keeping to our nominated budget allowance, a new vinyl floor was installed over the existing concrete surface and a suspended ceiling installed with superior bright LED fittings. The space now looks more like a top-class modern art facility.

The gift of an education is a gift for life

In the spirit of reconciliation, Haileybury acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
