AROUND THE SCHOOL Boarding: exciting development Work is well underway on our new Coeducational Boarding Development, which will be ready for our boarders in 2021. At the time of writing, the project was on track, with the first two wings of the building clearly visible. A time-lapse video of the project filmed from January – May 2020 clearly shows how much the building work has progressed. You can watch the video on our YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/ watch?v=b4WA6r22l2w. The new boarding facility includes separate, secure living areas for girls and boys, with both single sex and co-ed social lounges. It incorporates flexible meeting rooms and lounges, study spaces, media lounges, kitchen facilities, a parent lounge, office spaces, staff accommodation and medical facilities. Located on the northern side of Terrace Road, the building has stunning views across the Swan River flats, looking out over our 100-hectare campus to the river. Places are now open for boarding in 2021, with further information available on our website at www.ggs.wa.edu.au/boarding, or by contacting our Registrar on (08) 9377 9247 or [email protected].
