College Master Building Plan

We're thrilled to reveal our College Master Plan, a visionary strategy aiming to transform our campus over the next two decades.

Developed in partnership with Novum Architects, this plan is our roadmap to enriching the educational experience through advanced facilities and infrastructure, while upholding the well-being of our community and our core values.

Our design philosophy emphasizes flexibility, adaptability, and a commitment to fostering a strong sense of community. These spaces are not just physical locations but environments that embody the values we teach, designed to nurture creativity, collaboration, and excellence. They will serve as a vibrant hub for students, staff, parents, and visitors, reflecting MBC's nurturing culture and commitment to a rich learning experience.

As we move forward, we invite you to join us on this transformative journey to create a campus that is not only prepared for the future but continues to inspire, educate, and empower for generations to come.

Current Progress

While we celebrate the completion of our latest Master Building Plan, it does not signify an end to our commitment to past initiatives.

When is the first stage of the Master Plan set to begin?

The College's Master Plan features several essential infrastructure projects to be rolled out over the next 20-30 years. We plan to start the first stage, including obtaining Council approvals and conducting community consultations, in 2024.

How is the Master Plan being financed?

The Master Plan, developed collaboratively by Novum and The Moreton Bay Colleges, allows for phased implementation. We aim to fund each project through a combination of savings and borrowings. Some projects might also include fundraising efforts within the broader College community.

Will there be an increase in school fees to support the Master Plan?

No, the Master Plan's funding does not rely on tuition fees. Any future changes in tuition fees will be to support the College's annual operational requirements, not specific Master Building Plan projects.

Does the Master Plan involve increasing student enrolment?

The Master Plan is not aimed at increasing student numbers but will support future growth at Moreton Bay Boys College. Its primary focus is on enhancing our state-of-the-art teaching and learning facilities, implementing a comprehensive transport and safety strategy, bolstering infrastructure for the physical and emotional wellbeing of students and staff, and establishing a robust environmental sustainability framework.

Will there be disruptions to school facilities during the Master Plan's execution?

While major construction projects typically involve some disruptions, the meticulous design by Novum aims to minimize these impacts. The College will provide advance notice of any significant developments and will work closely with both the College and local communities to ensure thoughtful consideration and minimal disruption.
