Its distinctive Y-shaped layout organises 18 classrooms around a central atrium, which serves as a flexible gathering and assembly space. The form also reflects the College’s philosophy of helping students discover their purpose and find their “why.”
Open planning, visible staff areas and welcoming communal spaces support student wellbeing and safety. Overall, the Coolock Centre successfully balances learning, flexibility, identity, wellbeing and community for approximately 550 students.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the lands where our studios are located, the Wurundjeri Woiwurrung people of Yálla-birr-ang, Collingwood and the Wadawurrung people of Djiling, Geelong.

We pay our respects to Elders, past and present, across all regions of Victoria and beyond. We honour the design ingenuity of First Peoples over millennia, their unique contribution to our understanding of place, and their care for the Country on which we create.
