Wesley Primary School

Project Scope:
The Wesley area was undergoing a housing regeneration project called “Roskill Development” run by Kāinga Ora, and because the existing primary school was in a state of disrepair, this presented the Client, the Ministry of Education, with a great opportunity to create a new expanded school with a design influenced by the community. What made this project unique is how it incorporated the local culture and topography into its design, from the beautiful views of nearby Mount Roskill to the simple but innovative architectural features with Māori and Pasifika motifs. The school's two large 400m² precast square blocks, linked by a bridge and surrounded by walkways, provide a flexible and modern learning environment with high ceiling open teaching spaces and breakout rooms. The opening of the school was attended by the Minister for Auckland.
