Jamison High School

BKA Architecture was engaged by the NSW Department of Education (through SINSW) to
develop feasibility studies and designs for multipurpose school halls for four different schools
across New South Wales.

Jamison High School

Located at Penrith, Western Sydney, Jamison High School is a progressive learning centre
offering both STEM and vocational learning for Years 7-12.
Its campus includes purpose-built computer and technology labs, an agricultural plot,
fully equipped industrial arts workshops, science labs with industry-grade equipment and
a purpose-built nursing education block for senior students enrolled in the technical and
vocational education and training (TVET) nursing course.
The multipurpose hall includes indoor sports courts, sports and equipment storage, toilets, and
back-of-house facilities.
BKA identified an opportunity for the multipurpose hall placement to improve visual identity
and increase activation of existing external play / assembly spaces. The new hall is used for
various activities, boosting sporting community activity across Jamison, nearby York Public
School and the local council.
