Demolition

January, 2025

Demolition of building M and N commenced in September 2024 and is due for completion in January 2025. Building works will start once the site has been handed over to the builders, Alchemy Construct Pty Ltd, who will be taking on the building and construction of the Frankston Tech School.

Sustainability and the environment have been a key focus for the design team. Chisholm has worked collaboratively with Prime Build to recycle as many materials as possible during the demolition process.
