To support the rapid growth of Melbourne’s outer suburbs, the Victorian School Building Authority (VSBA) funded the construction of five new schools as part of the Bundle A 2023 project. Designed with state-of-the-art learning environments and sustainable infrastructure, these schools feature a combined 880kW solar power system across five sites, significantly reducing reliance on the grid.
