Te Kura o Manunui
ASC Architects
2024
Formerly known as Brookfield Primary, Te Kura o Manunui has embraced a new identity, shedding its former name and adopting one that pays homage to the original Pā site, Manunui. Te Kura o Manunui’s new campus stands as a stunning embodiment of architectural excellence and thoughtful design. This change, steeped in local history and celebrating the abundance of native birds in the area, set the stage for a fresh chapter in the school’s history and marked a significant milestone in its commitment to diversity, history, and sustainability.
The striking black brick veneer façade, adorned with highlights of cobalt blue mirroring the school’s colours, immediately captures the eye, setting a bold and distinctive tone.
Comprising three interconnected buildings seamlessly linked by covered walkways, the campus encourages fluid movement and connectivity.
The dynamic outdoor learning spaces provide students with an environment that fosters creativity and collaboration.
In a world increasingly conscious of health and the environment, the school has invested in Supreme dri bubble hand dryers.
These state-of-the-art dryers not only ensure efficient, low consumption hand drying but also incorporate HEPA and UV-C sterilisation for an ultra hygienic solution.
The added option of a ‘Quiet Mode’ is a huge benefit and offers flexibility for more noise-sensitive areas.
