Ramlegh Park Primary School is a new P-6 school designed to welcome children and their families in Melbourne’s fast-growing Clyde North area. The school is conceived as a community heart that is inviting and engaging, with emphasis on nature-inspired learning.

Delivered as part of the VSBA’s New Schools 2021 Program, Ramlegh Park Primary School had a non-traditional project planning process. It was one school in a package of seven that was planned, designed and delivered in just two years.

The VSBA sought schools that demonstrate exemplary design and quality. Ramlegh Park Primary School had to meet high standards and aspirational goals, while delivering value for money with a sustainable approach.

The school design by DesignInc + Brand Architects aims to nurture the child in all aspects, from the intellectual and emotional to the physical. Biophilia is evident in every part of the school environment, not just in formal learning zones but also in the spaces in between and outside.

The design narrative was driven by the aspirations of the brief and the intention to nurture the child in all aspects, from the intellectual to the emotional self. The planning of built environment from formal learning zones to the spaces in between was developed to support whole of child learning and nurture their emotional self through play, discovery, connection and engagement with nature.
