Fairfield Primary School
Architects: NBRS ARCHITECTURE and Fleetwood Australia
Location: Fairfield, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
The award-winning new facilities at Fairfield Primary School have been designed with connectivity and transparency in mind. A collaboration between NBRS ARCHITECTURE and Fleetwood Australia, the permanent modular building provides opportunities for years 5 and 6 students to become actively involved in the life of the school and wider community.
The project was awarded Best Primary School at the Victorian School Design Awards.
The desire was to replace an aging existing facility with a new central hub. Facilities include a resource hub, library space, maker spaces, amenities and general learning areas that can be responsive and multi-modal.

The design challenge was to insert the new hub seamlessly with an existing heritage building and the broader School campus.
The unique building design opens up on the ground floor to a colum...
