The WA government has appointed architects for two multi-million-dollar school upgrades in the state.
Iredale Pedersen Hook has been selected to design the $22 million upgrade to Karratha Senior High School in the Pilbara region.
The upgrade will comprise a new specialist technologies building which will include nine teaching spaces for engineering, mechatronics, STEM, media, digital design and information technologies, as well as new student services facilities and the refurbishment of the existing food technologies studio.
Meanwhile, With Architecture has been appointed to design the $18.3 million upgrade to Lynwood Senior High School.
The project will include a new classroom building, student services, performing arts centre, sports hall and various refurbishments.
Both projects are part of the government’s recovery plan to upgrade and refurbish public schools in the state.
Construction on both school upgrades is due to start in December 2021.
