Campus Planning
The future of St Michael's
We believe that great learning spaces inspire great learning. Over the past decade, our campus has grown to include award-winning facilities that bring together students, educators, and the community in environments designed for curiosity, creativity, and collaboration.
Past award-winning projects

Looking ahead to 2025–2050
Building on the success of past projects, our Master Plan envisions new centres of excellence that connect learning spaces across the campus.
Our vision includes enhanced aquatics facilities for students and the wider community, and an expanded Senior School STEAM hub linking Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics. All developments prioritise sustainability, community engagement, and minimal disruption to learning and those in our neighbourhood.
Campus planning is a testament to the collective effort of our community, spanning successive cohorts of students, parents and educators, honouring the vision of those who came before us and ensuring that current and future students, along with their families, will benefit from a vibrant and enriching learning environment.

Beyond the Court Sports Project
In Term 4, we officially opened the Coleman Courts, a new facility including one full-size undercover/outdoor court with basketball, volleyball, and netball flexibility, and a mini basketball and volleyball court.
Our longer-term vision involves an enhanced Aquatics facility for the benefit of St Michael’s students, including our elite swimmers, as well as for the many school and community groups that use our campus for swimming.
We are also envisioning enhancements to our hub for design and technology in the Senior School, with a goal to link Science, Technology, Art, Engineering and Mathematics (S.T.E.A.M) learning spaces across our campus, delivering outstanding interdisciplinary learning opportunities for students and staff.
With architects, sustainability planners and donors to our School, we are still in the process of envisioning the best way to achieve this.
As plans evolve, we will ensure that community members are kept updated, and as always, any project will be carefully planned to minimise disruption to student learning, and our neighbours.
St Michael’s is one of Australia’s leading independent coeducational schools, educating more than 1200 students from Kindergarten to VCE. We acknowledge the Boonwurrung People of the Kulin Nation as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which St Michael’s stands. We pay respect to their ancestors, elders and emerging leaders, and we are committed to reconciliation through authentic relationships and continued cultural learning.
