A hub for students and staff
The building has been designed as a hub for students and staff, with a Café window and terrace opening from the Home Economics room, where student baristas make and sell coffees and hot drinks from the Deja Brew Café. The inside corridors are creatively set-up with artworks, displays, inspirational quotes and gathering spaces.
One school. One journey. Multiple pathways.
The Trade Centre branding of ‘One school. One journey. Multiple pathways.’ was carefully crafted to reflect our school’s mission of providing excellence in education, stressing high academic standards and the development of individual potential in a dynamic, caring and Christian environment. The Trade Centre epitomises the opportunity for all students, from Junior to Senior School, to discover their individual potential across many disciplines.
