The J. A. Kearney extension represents the 5th step in our master plan to accommodate the expanding curriculum of St Kevin’s College with the creation of a transitional environment towards tertiary studies.

Situated on a peninsula between the Glen Waverly train line and the Yarra River, the extension to the J.A. Kearney Building is visible from the river and creates a direct link to Heyington Station.

Seabrook Hunt & Dale Architects 1965
In constant use since the 1950’s, the existing building is a 5 storey masonry structure provisioned with all the facilities of the era. It has remained largely unchanged as the school developed a unique university style campus around it.

The building form steps and twists to manage the transition from 2 stories to the existing 5 storey sheer wall.

Ground Floor
Employing a layered program to key directly into the existing building, the ground floor accommodates design technology to enable the safe handling of equipment and materials.

For thermal management, the building employs a dual façade skin, fixed sun louvers and Low-E glazing in conjunction with a Building Management System to control lighting, air-conditioning & blinds.

A revegetation program for the river bank was established with Formium Landscape Architects to remove and replace non-indigenous plant species with approximately 2,300 new native shrubs and trees.

Graphic treatments to pin-walls, window film and carpet tiles were developed with Kinart Design to provide educational content and identity to each level.

Working with Cardno Structures & NDY Services the building systems have been carefully coordinated to reveal the inner workings. All mechanical, hydraulic & electrical services are suspended below the acoustic ceilings and are labelled as a teaching tool to complement the technical curriculum.
