Margaret Hendry School Expansion

We are delighted to share that the Margaret Hendry School Expansion (MHSE) has been completed!

The expansion can accommodate up to 600 additional Kindergarten to year 6 students, meaning the growing number of local children can join the Margaret Hendry School community.

The expansion includes a new, two-level learning space, an outdoor learning and play area, a new community hub, two new carparks and a bike enclosure. Many of these facilities will be made available for community use.

Working in close collaboration with ACT Education Directorate, our suppliers, subcontractors and consultants, we think the new facilities look incredible! Hindmarsh would like to thank everyone involved for their hard-work and dedication – only by focusing on safety and attention to detail at each stage of the build, can projects of this quality come to life. It has been a pleasure delivering this exceptional school expansion for the local community.

Students and staff have been transitioning into the new learning environment and exploring the general and specialist spaces including food technology, and Science Technology Engineering Art and Maths (STEAM).

The Hindmarsh project team is now focussed on delivering the new North Gungahlin High School and are eager to showcase their skills and deliver another outstanding educational facility for the ACT Government.

You can read more about the Margaret Hendry School Expansion on the ACT Government website.
