INTRODUCTION

Creating New Traditions

Guided by our vision to be the leader in boys’ education with exceptional people, programs and facilities, we now prepare for the future learning needs and educational experience for our boys.

Welcome to our multi-year program of campus renewal designed to support our vision for the future of learning and education at Prince Alfred College. 

The Master Plan for the College encapsulates and protects our heritage, our traditions and our values as a proud educator of boys whilst creating flexible environments that will meet the future teaching and learning needs of our community. Our new and refurbished learning areas will provide us with functional spaces and experiences with learning outcomes of our students at the heart of our planning process.

We are bold in our ambitions because we want the best for our boys at each stage of their journey at the College. Purposeful spaces that engage and inspire our students to ask questions, work together to solve problems, and dare to dream big.

Our staged program of works ensures we take a considered approach to each area within the campus, and allows us to minimise the disruption to our students’ learning and experience during their time at the College.

We invite you to explore these pages to learn more about our vision for the Prince Alfred College Master Plan and to keep up to date as the program progresses.

ABOUT

About the Master Plan

Through 2022 and 2023, community consultation was undertaken to identify the current and future vision for our Kent Town campus, located on the edge of the CBD in Adelaide, South Australia.

Consultation included workshops and surveys with students, staff, current and past parents, and external design consultants.

AJC Architects were appointed, through a tender process, as the College’s Master Plan Architects. The team at AJC guided the College Council, the Infrastructure Committee and the College Executive through the master planning process, supported by a number of expert design consultants.

The Master Plan planning process has identified five macro design and build projects to be included in our future vision of the campus. Each project, or stage, will be developed with student outcomes at its heart along with fiscal prudency and minimising environmental impact.

The five Master Plan Stages are:

Stage 1 - Preparatory School Redevelopment

Stage 2 - Prince Alfred College Carpark

Stage 3 - Multi-purpose Sports Field

Stage 4 - Secondary School Development

Stage 5 - Secondary School Refurbishment

    The Master Plan, and the various staged projects within it, will be subject to consultation with our community, College Council approvals and town planning approvals by the Norwood, Payneham and St Peters Council in due course.

    Prince Alfred College is the kind of place that has an impact. It's where boys have grown into young men of good character, for over 150 years.
